Anyone been jabbed by these unfriendly creatures in and around the Goldy Broadwater? I got done a little while back standing in a weed bed. Copped about 15 spines in the foot. Just a heads up in case your unaware. Pricks of things!!!!!

For non locals -sea urchins on the goldy broadwater is slang for "used needle"

Always a bit worried when the tide gets down and you find yourself having to stand in the weeds when jumping back on the board.
I've decided to either go out in my steel caps or just stay on the board.
I think I'll be doing a wee bit of sinking to be honest.

Was out there today and now paranoid about these bloody things -where abouts at Loders did you cop it?
