Went for a surf this morning at the Alley and was stoked to see the swell had finally picked up.I paddled onto a bigger one that was breaking just about on top of me and got creamed big time.
I ended up landing on one of the fins of my board ,and realised after I could put my finger in the hole in my right butt cheek that I'd better go in and have a look.
Off to the docs and had 3 nurses helping put in 4 stitches
Spewing as I am out for a few days and the swell is on the rise.......bummer
My wife thinks it's funny as she is married to a guy with 2 holes in his bum!.
Posted these shots as a gentle reminder of the dangers of fins and the damage they can inflict.

2 eyes and a nose and you'd have yourself a little smiley face
Bad luck mate and I hope it gets better soon. Did ya rip your boardies?
Nasty mate,did you get one before one got you
No injury is good,but I can only imagine it could have
been much worse with a solid landing
Yeah got a few good ones prior to. I ripped a hole in my new xmas boardies. Spewing.
Good fun till you sit get a fin stuck in your arse.
Ouch...What was your fin configuation. Thruster?
I was out there this morning . The 9' was a challenge but great when on the wave. I lost it standing still and took a fall on the rail. Bruised or cracked ribs.. Seems the general consensus is 4 weeks out of the water.
PLease someone tell me it only takes a week. What is the damage if you don't wait?? Can't get up from lying position without the kids grabbing my arms.Once up its ok 'til I breath.
I have had the same I got off a bit lighter with wearing a wettie , our water temp has just got to the same as yours in your winter lol. I feelyour pain . TB
Yeee-owww.. that's gotta hurt.. All the girls will be wanting you to drop your pants.. to seen the scar..
Looks like you'll be sitting on one cheek for a while..

nice arse shot wazza
just another splinter up the arse on the banister of life
nice swell lines yesterday
and not too bad today either
it looks a little red up higher!! are you sure some one wasn't spanking you and got a bit carryed away and spanked to hard?
fins suck
just snapped a side fin out of my new stick this morning (snapped at the tabs) board no damage
so i came in and wacked in another fin and went back out
and within 15mins chopped the the same side fin in the arse and this time snapped it and destroyed one of the plugs thus leaving a big mess where the plug once was
nice work
no blood tho
Good thing your a hard arse or lard arse Doggyman
I do say that as I am typing this sitting on my left butt cheek.
