First time i got in the water i got a big rash on my knees, and the second time i came out of the waer with my knees bleeding. Tat´s because i was trying to stand up in the wrong way
fifth time in the water i hit the sand bottom with the rear fin and it broke and damage the gass on the board.
My knees healed fast and i dont hurt them anmore, about the fin, just got it fixed for some 15 dollars.
not much to complain about...
getting hurt and braking your board is part of the sport, one to be avoided as best as possible, but still part of it.
