Compact, easy to manage, with plenty of stability so little aspiring surfers can get out there and enjoy the waves. The Gnaraloo Dune Buggy is the perfect entry level surfboard for first timers under 40kg/85lbs, and a great option for little rippers who love messing around on a softboard.
Feature an integrated Fin System, Wooden Stringers to ensure the board is stiff enough. A light weight EPS core combined with a PE foam layer on the deck and a High Density PE Slick that is mounted to a thin PE Foam layer on the bottom give the board an awesome feel in the water. Soft enough not to hurt should you fall on it but hard enough to handle the power of the waves.

Trent Lash, heart patient and founder of the largest community-led, peer-to-peer heart support group in New Zealand, will share with you what a heart attack looks like and why high blood pressure is a major issue. He will explain how heart disease mortality rates are as high as ALL cancers combined, and what help is available in the community and the healthcare sector, for heart patients.
WHERE: Glenfield Public Library, 90 Bentley Ave, GLENFIELD
WHEN: Today, Tuesday 16th December
TIME: 10:30am
EVERYONE IS WELCOME. Come along, learn from someone with 'lived experience' of heart issues, and what to look out for. You may just save a life - yours, a family member's, or one of your friends or whanau.
Kia ora,
Does anyone have an unwanted piece of carpet or rug - preferably at least 3m x 2m ? I would love to have it to use for a project
