I just wanted to hit 30 this season to compensate for the increasing kiteboarding tracks. So today hit the highest 2sec peak speed at 31.40 at www.sportstracklive.com/track/detail/JPCuaycong/Windsurfing/Villarosa-beach/pain/140946 and KA72's at http://www.ka72.com/TrackRecalc.aspx?fid=13058
of 31.07 of the same track. But skimmed a breaking swell and hit another forming chop. The fun of catapulting slammed my body with my arm between body and board. hit my head on something, saw for the first time stars on a grey cloudy morningand slid my nuts on top of the boom with searing heat. Took my bearings for 5secs and assesed damage but none only I couln't hold on to the boom waterstarting but finally hobbled back to shore. Iced everything but wrist and elbow still swelling. Was it worth it? hell yess! Wifey had a good cozying up even though I couldn't hold her forearms with rightey.

Well done Johno Had a look at your tracks and it looks like a mad woman's breakfast
I've actually had the star thing also after going over the front, bit of a worry

Were you wearing a helmet?

I had a massive off a couple weeks ago.

Ended up having a HUGE nasal anema. Instant chuck while waching my gear float away.

lucky I was wearing a helmet as it could've been much worse.

thanks everyone my wrist's still swelling and still is my elbow had it x'ray'd last night and ortho just saw old injuries..I declined his anti-inflammatory tabs and used herbal oil to massage it instead..the price was well worth the feeling. If I had the billions I'd wall up the 1nm stretch

It'd be nice echunda but then the drunks would be asking if the board had an engine as I have been asked twice before and the latest on this one..wondering what they'd be asking on the helmet
