kool commercial, the fact they chose windsurfing over other sports is really neat.

I can't get away from seeing the Beetle as a chick car

so nice to have the exposure, on the girls as well !!

That ad should run during the Superbowl?!

Though unfortunately, we will likely not see it on US TV. If we did, it would probably showcase kiteboarding. Wink

No it would showcase texting and driving. Laughing

So Josh, clue us in to which boards/shapes are working in those conditions! Looks like Hatteras on an onshore day.....

You missed his post...apparently grabbed an old beater from a rental fleet, or lying under a porch....painted it and made it work.

dude could sail a log

re the original topic of this thread:

how did he fit his gear into that car?

also, not sure if they chose windsurfing exactly. I feel like they chose the athlete.

i sailed a bunch with the earlier New Beetle....fit all the stuff right in after dropping the passenger seat down, and yanking the rear seat foward....thing could whip corners and the Turbo gave it push...but yeah U2 it was really my soon-to-be wife's car
