Please tell me in pic#3 that he didn't make it....?

One handed needs to be in between the harness lines, and even then I fk it up. Please tell me he crashed..... make us all feel better lol

But as always, top pics!!!

The guy in the last pic with the blue blade copped a nasty bang to the side of the head doing a forward, nearly passed out, Pete helped him in. He couldn't hear in one ear seemed a bit dazed and shaken up. Hope he's OK

Everything looked tops... until pic #5 when I saw the big "F" on the bottom of the board just jokes though

there is some really hi crash tolerance there from all participants. Especially Mr forward and Mr one handed with the wrong hand
I wanna know how bad the tang was in the latter..... but the pic is awesome!

Yes I can confirm that the one handed snap did not go to plan and in fact was not planned at all was over powered and the sail was ripped out of my front hand, in saying that I do like doing the one handed snaps but as mentioned your back hand needs to be in the middle of your lines or just in front for it to work. As for the guy who crashed yes I pulled him in as he was close to going under and was very groggy and out of it, he came down the next down to say thanks and informed me that he has burst his ear drum. This is the second rescue I have made in the last two weeks out there, must admit after seeing his crash and some of the hard landings I took that day doing forwards I am thinking a helmet might be on the Christmas wish list.

Looks like he was setup for a perfect forward!
