surfing some nice waves today at happy valley... popped up on a nice one.... doing nothing different as i did i felt a rip from my groin to stomach , yelled, curled up in pain, got to shore ok thanks to the wife and pulled myself up the stairs to the car went to the hospital torn the real low abdominal from left to right...bloody kills im ok fit for 46 so spewing...anyone else done this injury popping up and what did you do to fix it? time for whiskey j ps the guy that grabbed my board and brought it to the car you are a legend!

^ ouch! Sounds nasty! Well painful anyway. Sounds like you should mend quick... soft tissue. (?).

Yep you are older than me

Jas' you sound so unfit for a man of your age I've got 10 years on you mate and I look like a porn star that can go all day Seriously,I can almost feel your pain ouch,I had or still have a dickie (billboard)back and at its worst,I was surfing three years ago and popped up and bingo like I got shot by a sniper down I went in serious pain,I floated in and almost asked the lifeguards for help but I man'd up and sucked up the pain,loading the board on the car was well a killer. Hope you repair old dude fast and stick to the mac fitness program,drink Bears kills all bugs

Mate I fully hear ya. As recently as Sat' morning I surfed a mal in good size waves and had a bit of a crack and felt the best I have in years and actually went pretty well. Got outta the water totally psyched and pumped and stood around talking to some mates - which was all the time it took for my back to decide that i'd had enough fun this year - 5mins later I'm having to get on my hands & knees to take the leggy off my board cos I can't bend down - fk, life stinks some days but no matter how strong or fit or skilled you are sometimes sh#t just happens mate. Rest up - stay positive and if all else fails buy a sup

Billboard I wish you the best mate I know how you feel,but I'm in noway as bad condition as you so I share you pain,but Jas' owns a few sup's
