So thanks to a certain canine mate, I've been out the beach in swell or none at all . Looking at the mirror this morn I've realised I've developed the WORST neck tan because of it haha

One of those little things about surfing that make it what it is hey. So uhh... how do I get rid of it?

haha boards doing well Doggie, getting use to a shortie after a summer on a fish and little swell.

Lol the creativity of surfers. Although those tips are tempting boys, better I start packing on the sunscreen instead aye!

Just a question on the side. So got whiplash/concussed (didnt lose consciousness) on the weekend after getting smashed by the lip of a bigger wave. Have spent last couple days recovering and feeling all good.

Am I allowed to head back out surfing or should I give a week or so more? Any previous experiences guys?

if you are feeling 100% well you are probably right to go surfing again - perhaps take a buddy...

However, i had a bad concussion once where I was 'out cold' for about 10sec... i had a incredible feeling of fatigue for a few days afterwards...

You should be ok but if you have any tight spots in your neck or back get them checked right away, like now!!

Should be fine tho
