Faaark. All the best in your recovery mate. It is hard to think about it at this stage but you will be back rippin it up before you know. I shattered a femur years back and was back to being the crap surfer i was before the accident in no time at all. Thoughts with you today mate.

Yeah that's bit a bad luck Dave. Speedy recovery, time out of the surf isn't much fun. You'll only be out for 6-8 weeks ill be back by then after 6 months out

So we should expect a few bored posts on Seabreeze for the next week or so

Roll the technical questions fellas

Take the recovery seriously.

srred that means nothing :)

So what hurt the most, breaking your leg or them cutting off your wettie, or do you have a new spring suit now :)

Be lucky if Mandy doesn't neck you too.

I would say start a "surf photos for Dave" thread, but that would be adding insult to injury. Maybe an injury photo thread, to share the pain

Maybe they need to employ some of your board technology when repairing your leg- for more strength and spring

Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Now that the old fella has generated some interest through this thread, I can proudly supply some photo's of him when we got him to the Ambulance..... Notice the clenched fist, that's when he was saying "if you give me pain killers now I will smack you one! I'm going to need them more when Mandy gets to the hospital."
