The international one design landsailor is called a Norblan, and is made is
France. Annually there are international land sailing events where this one
design board is used. Mostly these events are held in the south of France,
but one year they were held in Maine. The one-design Norblan is made of 1"
teak or mahogany, is about 5.5' long and about 9" wide, with a very wide
truck on the rear (about 30") and a narrower truck on the front (about 20").
The tires are inflatable Michelin tires about 11" in diameter. These
Norblans work great on grass, hard packed sand, and even pavement
(ouch.....severe raodrash). They cost approx. $500-600. new.

Just to clarify intent (as if that ever was defensible in court) and to
reduce redundancy. I plan to push having the Coyote group re-become the
Peninsula chapter of SFBA. I'm pretty sure there already is that designation.
(Was that last sentence or 2 poorly written or what?!) Also does anyone have
a land sailer (skateboard with a mast base) with inflatable wheels? We just
bought a skateboard with regular wheels and I am curious how the others work
in dirt or grass.
Thanks!!
