Could be worse, I have'nt surfed for 3 months cos I'm not able to get to the coast. Ahh well :(
I would have thought a fracture would have been a bit longer than 4 weeks to heal?
Hope ya get well soon anyway :)

Did you fall and try to break your fall with your hands? I see that a wee bit too much...

Sucks you're outta the water.

I'm the same, I'm soooo gutted I broke my leg 3 months ago on Friday 13th so have been unable to go surfing,

I'm thinking of going in the next couple of weeks, I'm a lerner so am unsure if its a good idea to go in the midle of winter but im going to give it a go

I Can't wait

my doctor recommends surgery so i wont suffer arthritis at an early age, so i dont know
