Just heard a breif on Triple J news a windsurfer killed yesterday
anyone hear anymore?http://www.thewest.com.au/default.aspx?MenuId=77&ContentID=103084
just spoke to a mate who is there.
said they found him floating on his back, swam him in and began resuscitating him but couldn’t revive him...
sounds terrible....
condolences to the family
Definitely a windsurfer? The press gets us mixed up with kiters sometimes.
Anyway, that's really sad.
My condolences.
Good time to ask: Should I always wear an impact vest and/or helmet in the surf?
I'm only just starting to venture out in 2-4ft onshore slop. No loops or anything.
Ive been ko'ed in the surf before while sailing. By far one of the scariest things that ever happened to me, especially the thoughts thatgo thru your head as the lights go slowly out..... The most important thing is to keep an eye on your mates and make sure you always see that head bob up from the water after a drilling.
Very sad....
