[quote=tamumpower1]Damon, I had a wetsuit on and trunks over it as the temps dropped a little bit this weekend to a high of 70 and the wind made it pretty chilly. I think that's the only reason the back of the board didnt straight hatchet into the side of my leg.
And dang yea my leg doesn't look that bad. Just really swollen. I have a 8-10 red mark down my shoulder and back where I flew into the shroud and somehow I managed to slightly pull my tricep on that side as well.
From what everyone said I can see how maybe if I feathered the boat speed up a little bit I would have had a better chance. I've driven the bows under a few times and just rode it to a stop but in this area it's only a few feet deep so you can't get them too deep as I learned.
It didn't help either that we had little white cap waves rolling under the boat lifting the sterns up regularly. The elements just weren't in my favor. Even my buddy who is almost twice my weight had a few trips holding onto the rear beam as the bows dug.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by tamumpower1 on Apr 08, 2017 - 12:18 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
