No you may not change the name!
However, how about.

1/ Raelians
2/ Existential fire breathing kelp roaster
3/ Two turns
4/ Brown skids

I think Kelpsterns has nice ring to it.

Can't call it death wish as the rocks on the right of the channel is named the death zone and that is a complete no go zone so we'd only get confused.

Given the infamous photo of Houston standing on the reef and that he is acknowleged as "the smartest guy in the room" ....(he just acts dumb sometimes).....maybe the reef should be called "Rainman Reef"

Given the regularity with which stadiums are named after corporate sponsors maybe "Red Bull Kelp Reef" would be appropriate. The sponsorship money could then be used for a Grandstand for tourists and lights for night sailing!!!!

Well yes Grevill we know good advice fell on deaf ears when we told you to keep away from the Death Zone, for those that don't know this guy went out for the first time in a BOL storm!! Waves over mast high then got obliterated in a over 40 knot gust (55kts Cape Grim) lost all!! his gear swam drifted in the current up the coast round the death zone and managed to survive. We were talking about it in Tappo and Hazell's "smoking" hut the other night as we do most nights at Marrawah after a few beers.

Blah blah blah you guys just gone on and on about nothing, has anyone every hurt themselves at BOL well it's pretty obvious the answer is no. Imagine 8 of us going out the other day at BOL in mast high waves with not one injury then just one dickhead in that group heads off to Canada for three weeks skiing and just happens to be standing in the wrong place at the wrong time only to be taken out big time by a snow boarder from the side and ending up with a busted leg the worse thing about this story that dickhead happens to be me........ sh.t no more skiing and and no sailing till end Feb. ............ but then ya can only look on the bright side of life da da da da da]

Don't be fooled people; this is just a ploy by Anthony to get BOL renamed to 'Anthony's Break'.
Some people will do anything to get the headlines

Sounds like a sprain ,any excuse to spend all day in the pub or could it be true?
It could have been way worse ,saw a snowboarder hit a stationary skier on the side of run at coronet peak (NZ)They left unconscious in a helicopter (messy) or and don't forget what happened to shumac F1

I think your right Fluoro, another 'soft tissue injury' taken too far in the senior years. Give the 'SOFT' cock a 'TISSUE' he thinks he has an 'INJURY'
