This is for our mate,Bent Madradman. He fell off downhill skating and is just about to go under the knife and get a few bolts in his leg. Its going to be 10 weeks+ of pain watching me have fun.

SO to cheer him up! Please post your nightmare broken leg story on a spot below.

I broke my leg in the middle of one of those nuclear windy summers a few years ago, kitelooping slimchancing on a 7m in 30 knots. It was a very hot summer and my leg stank like a sewer pipe. Your turn.

This one time at band camp..

Oh dear, sorry to hear about your crook stump Radman.

Best of luck with a neat mend and post some more Radman hits the lip flicks ASAP.

Sorry guys you need to break a leg to be in the club.
G land hell man is in.

that light at the end of the tunnel seems so far away,good to hear afew stories cheers all

Be positive man. Time heals all wounds.
Tip: Get into the healthfood store for calcium + VitC, glucosamine, magnesium, zinc. All good for wound and bone healing.
Plenty of DVD's doesn't hurt either.

Pins in the leg tonight for my mate doing downhill yesterday.

Maybe just a little bit influenced by this in NZ last week 90-100km/h - one guy in bare feet



Snapped both bones in my lower arm at 90 degrees one time and dislocated the wrist at same time, that was fun. My wrist was 1/2 way up my 1/2ed lower arm and i lifted it up to wave at the car next door while getting driven to hospital, their face was gold lol

better than ****ty tendon damage - that just goes on and on... at least you know bones will heal good and heal quick.

Jeez just heard my mate broke his shin bone right through below the knee, broke both leg bones through above the foot and 3 in his foot, spiral breaks. ouch..!

i twisted my femur apart when attempting a tantrum on the wakeboard......3 alignment operations and a knee re-construction later i know have a bionic leg which is slightly annoying going through airports

holy ** that looks like someone left a multitool in your foot

Ok Andrewm, Poor Relli, Markass, Kit33r and Chronic are in
You have full rights to the club like all other members. (That's Bent n eye)
Being in the club is like having an acrod parking permit, but different.
Chronic gets a loading zone pass too cause he has buggered his twice.

Wipika free air and a perth front got my femur a few years ago. a fair bit of metal , a year off kiting and never been the same. I think i should be president.

Tip: Get into the healthfood store for calcium + VitC, glucosamine, magnesium, zinc. All good for wound and bone healing. None of this is any good to Radman unless you can smoke them[}:)]

No, not the date. I shattered it in January 2009.

That's quite a piece of hardware. Youch!
Glad you're kiting again, sorry to hear about the Tango... have you tried the viennese waltz

yeah well i agree with rowdy on this one, bloody skimboards can be dangerous broke my leg pretty well by simply missing with my back foot when running and jumping on to one. A 400m hop on one leg watching my foot bobble around followed by a relitivly short trip to the hospital was made all worth it when the nurse at the front desk went white after seeing the "slight" angle that my lower leg was on. It was the quickest service i have ever had presenting to hospital Went straight through

**** Max, least I didn't brake my leg I guess haha. Hopping around would have sucked.
I think the danger in it is thinking you are in water? Because I have been skating for a long time and had some really bad stacks but it's kinda like you expect it to happen so you are prepared. Where as the stack on the skim board was really nothing it wasn't even the classic slip out and land on your back (if it had I wouldn't have had time to put my arm out) it was more the fact that i fell slowly to one side and put my arm out and pushed it backwards, as i still had forward momentum it fractured 2 bones. This injury could happen pretty easily kiting n shallow water to I think.

NJ - forgot to mention i busted 2 vertebraes in my back April this year - can you start up a busted back club - make me the pres thanks buddy

OK - so last winter I wrecked my medial ligament in 35kts, then had to jog one legged the rest of the 2kms to the end of the downwinder. Then go straight to my kid's 5th birthday party and run around Scitech with a bunch of sugar fueled mini-psychos. Was pretty kn sore by the time i actually got to put my leg up.

I have fkd my thumb and 'bird' finger getting jammed into the bar/chicken loop and now have arthritis setting in nicely.

I have a nice big scar on my shin (shoulda got stitches but didn't want to stay outta the water) from coming down from a boost straddling the board. Coulda been worse I could be singing soprano!

I have a neat manly scar on my cheeck from the board flipping over in 30kts. Fair bit od claret from that one.

So can I at least be the valet parking guy for the club?? I figure you lot need someone to park your wheels and assist you and your zimmerframes into the club?
