I feel for you Bro

They're fun little baskets to stand on

Who the hell wears foot protection It's bad enough surfing in booties bugger kiting in them..

If your in an area prone to cobblers, for example shallows with scattered seaweed then shuffle your feet. It won't stop you getting spiked, but it will reduce the chances of a bad experience. It's actually your body weight that pushes the poison out of the sack at the base of the spike.

If you shuffle good chance is you will hopefully knudge their tail befor the side spikes and they will take off..

But I do feel for the poor bloke, I've never had one but some friends have and they were in some major pain.

Tuffen up Ted its not exactly horrific

WTF happened there, its just a big hole.

Havoc, same thing that killed Mr. Erwin.

There are 10 sting rays that hang out at the end of PW, and love young flesh.

what no photos of the actual hole? i saw that particular injury and the spike went in super deep. horrific? maybe not, but bloody fark-in painful. looks like its the two foot shuffle for me from now on.
