First serious paddle after MCL ripped off bone, ruptured PCL and fractures top and bottom in my knee from kiteboarding

Big thanks to Courts from supsurfaustralia who guided me through rehab. I was lucky to avoid surgery as ACL, meniscus and cartilage are intact :-) Your experience was a god send

Thanks to Jason westoz kiteboarding for the brace (pissed I missed Exmouth that looked all time :-( )

Thanks to Belly good to have someone as keen as you around :-) and Zimbo and Stef good day

I used Belly's JL Albatross 12 6 x 30 very stable and lots of fun great board He used my Naish 14 not good on narrow boards still

Been 9 weeks to the day so 7 weeks ahead of schedule. Last 3 weeks have been 2 hours a day in the gym working it ( fark I hate gyms)

Not all time but fun






















Belly showed off his street skills




Next weekend maybe some small waves
