Should poleys carry knives ?

Extreme sportsmen carry knives.
Poleboarding is maxtreme.
You dudes need them.
You never know, one day a knife could save your life.

Yep Definitely!!!!!

Most of us are that old we can't eat apples now.

A knife would help us slice them up into thin gummable pieces

My daughter wanted a ripstick for Xmas. However, Santa delivered a skateboard.
So this morning when she came in all upset, I thought "how am I going to explain this one?". So I told her "if Santa wanted you to be a one trick pony and wiggle around like a fool and then be bored, he would have given you the ripstick. But, he wanted you to look cool later in life and can see you mastering difficult tricks, so he bought you a skateboard". She thought about it for a second or two and then said, "yer I think he was right. That's why he gave you a sail and not a kite isn't is?".

Some of us have already decided to do it and, after long investigation, selected the Leatherman Squirt P4 shown here: http://www.leatherman.com.au/product/Squirt_P4

Cost about $80, but has the following features worth the money:

It is made of stainless steel, so it won't rust in seawater.

It folds up into a small package, until needed.

It has a VERY sharp blade

It has a pair of pliers (useful for trying to untangle wet ropes)

It has a loop on its bottom, to which 2mm rope can be attached

The 2mm rope is long enough so that when it is around your neck, the knife hangs to crotch level.

Worn inside your wetsuit until needed (blade folded! )

On the water, during an emergency, the knife can be used for cutting etc. and if you drop it, the loop around your neck stops the knife from sinking to the bottom.

So far, only ever used once, about 1 km off shore, in choppy water, to de-rig a buddy's gear after a mast snap. He couldn't untie the downhaul: I sliced through it in 30 seconds.

Hope this helps.

What exactly is the point of wearing a shorts over your wetsuit? It be like a chick wearing jeans with a skirt over the top.

Sounds like 'Slave was a little p*ssed after Santa didn't deliver to all his 50 kids

Merry Xmas all
