Just writing to say how good kiters are as a bunch of guys to ride with and a crew to look after ya when your down. I busted my knee late february and will be off the water till January, and recently had a knee reconstruction so have been stuck on a lounge for the past few days with nothing to do and the guys that have come to keep an eye on me have been great. Especially Ian who came over to visit me in hospital the day after I got discharged, then came over to my house with a stack of kiteboard mags to keep me occupied (they've been lifesavers mate).
After seeing the support for Laurie down in Melbourne it makes me realise that kiters all over Australia are just as good. And good luck to Laurie cause the **** I'm going through is driving me crazy, so I can only imagine how hard it must be for ya, and wish you all the best.

This was just supposed to be a quick post to say thanks for looking after me but i have a lot of time on my hands so i can drag things out a bit. Anyway, check yas. And come over for beer, they make the painkillers work better.

You can always get out in a kitebuggy until your knee heals.

schmik

i dunno, i reckon just stick to your net porn till your healed up dude.

get well soon mate. we miss your "go hard or go home" attitude to kiting - you always deliver maximum entertainment to whoever happens to be watching!

By the way, are you GalahOnTheBay?

Hey ya bud. Glad you enjoyed the mags. I forgot to get your email address for more entertainment when the mags run out... flick it to me and I promise you wont regret it. Hows the knee coming along ?

Hey jeff take it easy on that knee, as I had the same operation I rushed my return to competative sport a bit to early and stretched the new ligament, it is still alot better than before the operation but will still give way a little when I put alot of pressure on it.

Wing wetsuits make a good knee brace which I wear all the time and gives the knee a little more stability.Painful operation especially when the drugs wear off.You will be walking around in a couple of days and the pain should be gone by the end of the week.Good luck with it and hope to see you on the water soon.
