Well after saving my pennies, booking my holiday to Cocos, buying a new harness and generally sitting around nervously...I managed to BREAK MY HAND 3 weeks before my Cocos holiday . I've just come out of surgery and now have 2 weeks . Anyone know what I can do one handed while my mates live it up? keep it clean too ...

Better yet, how can I kite without destroying my new piercings (the 2 screws holding my 2 broken metacarpels together)? I was thinking of some sort of strap on hook...once again, keep it clean

Don't worry, with a broken hand most of our suggestions are no good to you . Though god did bless you with a second. You can always just get blind drunk....always a good time

Well, they do say that if you **** with your non-favoured hand, it feels like someone else is doing it.

I reckon you could still lead an active life with a kite while on holiday's

Catch a kite
Land a kite
Look at a kite
Pimp a kite
photo a kite
Dream about a kite
send pics back to us from the internet cafe

What if you held the bar and plaster cast your hand to the bar in just the right position so it wont stress your broken bits

Seriouly though what a bumma.
Is it worth auctioning off your holiday to the highest bidder so you wont have to sit on the beach and agonise over it for the whole trip

other things to do include:
canoe safari to uninhabited islands
cultural tour to Home Island
glass bottom boat tour
fishing charter
chill out on Direction Island and snorkel The Rip (if you can)
drink duty free alcohol
pretty easy place to just relax- bugger about the injury

You could stay back at the houses and clean up all the empty cans and prepare meals for everyone.OR. You could say f;ck/t and cut the leg of your wetty and use it over your arm. I'm sure you could kite if you realy want to. A broken arm wouldn't stop me, it slow me down but wouldn't stop me.
I'm sure you'll figger it out, it's to gooda kite destination to miss out completly.
Cheers
