yeah, i'm driving along minding my own business, when i see what looks like a folding table slide off the roof racks of this car in front of me.

it hits the road and bounce up, i swerved to the left without thinking and nearly run off the road. just as i straighten up, a bang and i see my board floating away in the rear vision mirror.

first reaction is i'm pissed as. hop out the car to see my board and the table down the road. at that stage i had the presence of mind to stay off the road and walk down to the board hoping the cars don't run over it. i already know the damage will be bad

oh, btw the back rack on the canopy are stuffed- bolts gone rivets pulled out and track loose.

any way i managed to get the board and the separated fin and walk back to the car.

the other guys get the table and ask about me and the board. i think i'm a bit shocked and say i'll be right, but to their credit they hung around.

i ring mac, he's about 3 minutes away. mate the racks are stuffed, can i get you to take the board. he does.

as i have to tie the racks down. mac starts organising phone number etc and i switch on enough to help out. the guys in the other car help out with this too. we've taken numbers, photo's, will get a mac account, my account, a new board quote as the board is a right off and get the rack fixed and add that too.


so mac says go infront and i'll follow you to dales factory.

now driving the car back is when i start getting shaky and jittery- i realise i could have been mince meat on the side of the road.the table could have come straight through the window into me

i'm still shaky now to be honest

So did the table hit the board or did the swerve dislodge the board ?

Very fuching lucky it didnt go through the window AND that the board didnt hit someone behind you - sheesh what a trip !

Mate just think on the bright side,number one you dodged a bullet and it could have been so much worse,new board just order one,new body nope not going to happen.

I know you'll be honest with the other guy,but just makes sure all repairs and new board are at his cost.

Phew, glad to hear your OK Lacey.

That is a bad story. Did you get the licence no. of the car that lost the table ?

I guess it could have been worse, you could have gone to Robina Town Centre to buy a new phone.

i just laughed again...better to be laughed and be pissed off instead of everyone writing ads in the memorials. so whats the new board going to be lacey

HP longboard

Go buy yourself a lotto ticket mate and also a new short - I mean longboard That's a lucky break!

Glad to hear your okay Lacey, that is some scary ****.. but the bright side is you are here, in one piece and have a damaged board and car. **** that is easily replaced. & 15 beers will erase the mental scar .

Now what happened in the other heavy weight collision of the weekend...Mac vs Asea?

^^^^^asea and mac hahaha would love to see those sexy boys in a jelly wrestling ring

Can we get a BBQ shot of the damaged board ?
Just not your time Lacey.

Lacey's sup is about a foot shorter than anything the guys ride in here[}:)]
Well at least own boards are in one piece

Just a thought but if the other party reneges on paying, it might be good to have some official record of the incident. In NSW you only have to ring the Police assistance line (PAL) and report it and get an event number. Might cover your arse later on down the track, your call?

Holly smoke LL. You poor thing. I am glad everything is ok - as Mac said boards etc are replaceable. Hope you are feeling ok - thats one hell of a scary experience.

thanks everyone, it's appreciated

long as your ok LL, the board can be replaced mate.

Geez mate it was only a sup

Now he needs a HP LB

your eyes must have been as big as saucepan lids watching that thing coming at you, not to mention your fundamental puckering up.

Good thing we can now have a bit of a laugh now because it could have so easily gone the other way.

Good to hear your alright, highway accidents are freaky. In Canada 13 years ago or so a guy lost a bord of his roof rack and it went through the wind screen of another car.

Lost a trailer of the back the truck once in Idaho with 7 lasers on it, past the truck on the shoulder and cartwheeled after hitting a road sign, that was interesting.
