Hey Windang,

I had a nasty cut on the sole of my foot from stepping on a sharp rock. I used the "Liquid Bandaid" stuff you can get from any chemist or some supermarkets.

Depending on how big it is. My cut was about 2.5 cms long. and one applicator was enuff to cover it(you get 5 in a pack).

Give it a shot, it is 100% waterproof. Make sure you scrub the area with dettol or something so no nasties get sealed in.

It is kinda like a glue. Good stuff!

Hope this helps. All the best

thanks for the advice

i decided it was tooo big for liquid bandaid and I am letting it heal. It is probably for the best (thats what I keep telling myself as I have missed the best 3 weeks of the season). It has already become infected once after I could not wait to try my new board.

as for super glue ... well ... i'll leave that up to someone else to try just in case you are pulling my leg.

Shaving aint so bad, I had to do it once. It grows back.

Hey Windang,

My Dad used to be a wicked surfer in his younger years. He once told me he had to punch a few sharks in the nose to get the good waves. He gave me a few pointers, when I was growing up regarding toughening up.

1) Eat gravel sandwiches - Gives Extra Iron
2) The more spit you can put in your diving mask the better it cleans
3) The wetty warmer in winter, really keeps you warm in 14 degree waters
4) Apple Sauce works on everything ( Even Chocolate Cake)

Maybe you could try my dads ideas, or even ask your own. -

To answer your question use tip no 4. -

looks like i will have to send a barrell of apples over to your house kyteryder - thanks for those tips. Is this the same dad that decided to ride a goat boat in the early 90's?

if you have something to say "malman" speak up and be heard!
..or do you belong on the windsurfing forum on your cornish wave slalom?
