Luckily I wasn't wearing the Sub when this happened!

So this dip wad cut me off on a wave and sandwiched my finger between his Surfboard and mine!

Nice little souvenir to bring home

Bill,if you had that Sub on,you could have blocked him with it.!!(Or knocked him out with it!).....
Has your board got any damage(rails cuts,depressions)??

Thanks for the advice JJ...I'll stick to leaving it in the splint. I was supposed to play guitar at a party in a week or so. Guess I will have to stick to Power Chords. Oh well.

I figured you would like this shot. Lots of Wrist

Thanks All
