Is tennis elbow a wave specific kite injury ? I would have thought a fin cut and bar end in the face are the norms ? Is a board injury like broken fins and snapped boards on the list of common injuries?? LOL
Golfers elbow.inside tendons had it for 8 mths nearly gone.****s me as gotta put dole form in at nerang .then kite if winds on.if not just get drunk on goon happy days.
The old ball slap off whitewash when timed correct brings a sickly feeling in the bottom of the gut, Anyone who's had an intercostal strain especially around the shoulder blades will vouch it's as bad as a kick in the balls, Had this one and would bring me to my knees Speaking of knees I had a big wack on the outside of my knee by a wave, inverting it, Put me out of action for about 6 weeks, I do ski squats now as part of my exercises to keep them strong including my cycling, knees would surely be the most common
Not an injury but this furker brings tears to my eyes You come in kick the board off into the shallows and have a chinwag to your mate The backwash grabs your board , slams the rail against your shinns and the other rail grinds up against your feet Add the pressure of the backwash for extra pain I do ride the aptly named shinn boards though
Shin injured from Shinn boards common while being casual near Shorey.Hahaha. Wife belted by board near her temple,in waves. Could have been serious.But Gath helmet protected her melon. Also Bursytis in shoulder caused by a uncontrolled body drag. Swollen sore ankles from long session ,straps probs overtight not wanting to loose board.Did'nt notice having to much fun.
That was a pretty lame board off ...dongora winds were shrinking my sphincter...
well mick it is the left arm from holding the bar during the board off and from looping..repetitive action, but I'm addicted. Arms nearly stuffed hey. Underaoth has given me some exercises to do...I suppose rest is due...... but fck that.
