Just had a surf session with Fone rider Beaver who unfortuneately smashed his shin on his board.
We checked him out on the the beach and it was pretty bad about 10 cm long and cut through to the bone
yeouch!

Lucky he was wearing a leg rope as I took it off his board and then put the ankle strap directly on the gash and did the velcro up

This allowed us to walk him up the beach to the road where he got taken to emergency medical centre

Dr Roganjoshi ( Who just arrived from Pakistan and hadnt done any stitches since medical school) did a sterling job and 11 stitches later he was all good

The legrope was a great help and stopped the bleeding till he got stitched

So for all you non - legrope wearers - they do come in handy

See the full set pictures in the next edition of KBM
but here is the happy camper straight after being stitched back together.
