Wow - I can't believe the first hospital didn't give him a decent set of xrays if he a) looked like that and b) told them the story of how it happened.

Hope he gets well soon...

Sorry, but people get ****** up every day, every time i look someone is onto the newest drama. Safe bet is stay at home and watch all the wild and outgoing folk live a life whilst you love your key board!

yes this is true. Especially do this if you think yu might come to WA., it is very dangerous there. I heard QLD has some very nice keyboards and loads of safe wind.

It was the seabed then the board to the head that did it, Say NO to board leashes and say YES to kiteloops.

I'm pretty sure Pineapple head from Sandgate/ Redcliffe area broke his neck a while back doing a trick and landing on it in shallow water.
