point of interest if you stop on the sanbar/weedbar ... there is very sharp holdfast and a whole assortment of sharp nastys out there dont pull up on the seaweed unless you have booties on.......
Holy crap dude...... sails blown out to sea in dunsborough, feet cut to ribbons at Safety Bay 
remind me not to sail anywhere near you
PS: hope it heals up well and quickly.
theres quite a few occy tubes on the sand bar there as well,[}:)] gotta love sailing over it at low tide, i can barely make it over on a 23cm and there where guys trying to get over the sand bar with 30cm+ fins. mind you it does make for some classic 'running' gybes when mid gybe they hit the sand bar and come flying off
I had a similar injury at Lucky bay - Melville about 3 months ago. After heading in at the end of the session I jumped off my board onto something sharp about 10 metres out from where everyone launches.
Hospital + time off work + worst of all no windsurfing for 5 weeks... At least it didn't happen during the middle of summer!
I dont know what you mean ...... honest
That looks nasty.
I haven't encountered anything sharp out there but I've only been there in the summer. Perhaps the sharp bits get covered by sand in the summer?
That probably saved many injuries over the up coming season.
I just placed my foot down onto the weed and felt a sharp pain at the time i didnt relize it cut i just thought it was a scratch. i kept on windsurfing it wasnt untill i pulled the wound apart at the beech i had relized the extent of the damage..
Is there mussels out there my mate said it could of been mussles ? not sure what he meant.
its all good trusty security at work putting dressings on it...and checking it for infection for us.
to bring you upto date about.. ... sails blown out to sea in dunsborough, stacked it ended gear drifted out swam swam swam to retreive it because it was moving quicker than i could swim ,(storm front came in at wind gusts of 110 kilometres per hour).. wind and current taking me out to sea.couldnt see land with the rain coming in horisontally held onto the last boat moring in the bay for an hour before detaching and watching my sail do cartwheels out to sea.
ill never go out in conditions like that again
make sure in extreme currents and wind that you will end up on the beech or drifting toward land not out to sea.
Probably a Razor Fish, a type of fan shell that is common in the seagrass beds.
Pinna Bicolour is the correct name I think.
I just hope that Mineral 1 has got nothing to do with this as a cunning plan to knobble any non Pinnas windsurfer
We are watching you now Mike!!!!!!
i sail there all the time i am 13 and i think u have steped on a cobbler or a rock or some thing (wats ur name).
