Thousands of surfers are petitioning to get the surfboard ban lifted. Surfers are now concerned that other airlines will follow suit and stop allowing Boards on their planes.

Anybody been affected by this ban? Personally I rent boards most places I go or friends tend to lend me theirs if I'm staying with them.

I tend to agree though I would like to see this ban lifted! Is it the same with Snowboards and skis?
