Well finally got some wind after a long boaring winter . yer ha its on its on out and crusen around lets do some jumps yep that was cool lets do that again . going through motions kite going up to 12 edging hard just about too pop or while on the pop motion WHAT THE sand bank (didnt realise tite was going out so fast) bang flying through air with only one foot in board not expericed enough for board off tricks yet reached down to get board back on forgot to fly kite ended bad landed crashed in 1 meter deep water with right foot stuck straight down into the sand . what was a long boaring winter is now become a long summer healing . End result one heel bone in 9 pieces 2 ankel bones broken up to 9 weeks maybe more . So for everyone out there take it easy for a while and enjoy look for sand banks and as the saying goes live today to kite another day .

**** dude! Hope you heal up ok, I've found you usually hurt yourself doing the simple/ stupid things.

holy crap dude, you're ankle is bad enough, but whats with your toes, they're all the same length, now thats f@rked up!!

surely people in qld have heard of torrents ?

When i was learning in my first lesson i got launched and put both feet out to stop myself not realising the force would throw me into the sand like a spear. I spent the next 6 months with a screwed ancle and even after 12 months it gives me greif. I now turn myself into superman when heading towards shallow water to avoid any limbs hitting first.

come on down to brighton and will show you how to jump and land in six inches of water //// hahaha.

Far out Sambo... start of the season n all.

Looks like its back to flying for a while to keep you occupied mate.

Speedy recovery dude.

My thoughts exactly

Hope you get recover soon dude.

You could also try some "Benefits of using punctuation" videos if you don't find anything else...

Well it has been 8 1/2 weeks still looks like s**t . Has anyone had a brake like this (heel bone smashed ) can tell me how long did it take too walk again and if so how long before you could kite . i am starting too eat the walls iam sooooooooo over it

Took me a good 6 - 8 months after a broken calcanium

Get it operated on by a specialist asap !!!
Even if you have to travel to find one it will heal so much faster !they told me without an operation I would not walk properly, now I have pins an titanium strapping holding my shattered heel together, took about a year before I could really smash it around again properly I got the top surgeon at nambour hospital, seriously you should go see him.

Yes - we all suffered with the vexatious posting during that time.


Hey S2A - Kn OUCH! Hope you heal quickly, and I have to say the pics are graphic but I think we are all grateful we didn't see a stray aggot make a cameo on that 2nd pic.

Upside is your gear won't be a seaon older in wear when you get out again.

Best of luck.

I feel your pain. Did the foot/ankle thing years ago, good luck. Currently waiting on shoulder reco now, small white water kayak injury. Always at the start of the season...

Maybe we need to start a Qld injured and bored club.

Thanks everyone .Blownaway i pm you .I am seeing a specialist on friday . I not sure but would they operate after 8 weeks seems like a long time heeling to brake it and screw it together again for it to heal again .
hey getfunky that is some raw fotage i dont like photos taken of me was one of the kids . who knows what i was waching on the tube at the time .

Hmm, but your picture shows you can still use your right hand, with a dropped jaw, while watching the TV from the floor... Good post, good warning, all the best!

I feel for you .... I smashed my heal once ....... ( climbed up into a wardrobe to retreive snow gear then jumped down , the front of my foot landed on the carpet my heal landed on the thin raised track that the wardrobe door slides on ) broken in 4 places unfortunately it took a very long time to heal properly ........ I resorted to riding an esky lid for the summer much to my mates amusement.

Mine took about 6 months before I could put my full weight on it.... About 10 before I could ditch the lid and surf.

I spent most of the time walking around on my toes/ ball of that foot and that caused major problems with the calf muscle in that leg.

Man, that looks like a double ender like my mum used to have on the floor just behind your ar$e, theres no way you should be bored with that badboy.
