Hi chaps
Went out today for a usual hack on the river, was going quite well thought I would try for a bit more more speed (as the confidence grows), so headed onto a beam/broad reach, all was going well first time I had thought shit this is quick!
I was probably only going 20knots, still a winter frontal system no seabreaze yet, but a huge gust started what was the biggest foil bomb I have ever had, lucky I had my helmet on, I hit the water head first missed the board thank god but man I saw stars.
I headed in and packed away feeling slightly sick with an enormouse head ache,still feel sick 7hours later, slight concussion I think.
I always hurt my ankles to if the board rolls over.
No pain no gain.........
Think I'm getting to old for this new sport, body take a while to heal these days....lol!
Do you guys hurt yourselves at all?
Cheers
Scuba
