Anyone sanded their foils, I did after slicing my wetsuit.

Umm? I think I better go & check.

The wounds take ages to heal on your feet because you are constantl putting them back into salt water.

For cuts, I use spray-on bandages, they work surprisingly well. I love cooking so I often have finger cuts :-)

But you may want to shave before applying them :-)

After two years foiling (wind and wing) I fell last Friday (.. silly concentration lapse... ), for the first time, right on top of the edge of my front wing. The tip of the wing went nearly 90 degrees into my upper butt/lower back.

Moments after I felt cold water entering my wetsuit. Scary. Tried to see if there was blood gushing out. Couldn't see anything. Checked if my board was red with blood. Nothing. Looked behind the board to see if the lake was getting red. Nothing.

After the session... 5 cm cut in my wetsuit. 0.5 cm deep. 1 cm long cut on my skin, 1 mm deep. No stitches needed.
I am looking for a wake impact vest now.

I might look to get one of the new Ride engine impact vests when they come out. Also their new soft surf helmets look good.
