Just the Tip

I’ve been having problems with my leashes lately (we’re talking surf leashes here snobro).  They keep ripping off my ankle after coming off waves.

I’m pretty sure it’s cause of my new sic-ass 7mm booties with my 5mm suit overtop for a combined 12mm of ankle rubber.  The velcro isn’t wrapping far enough onto itself.  It’s happened with 3 different leashes too.

Anyways…i’ve lost my boards(s) so many times in the last few sessions–from Maui(fun), to last weekend(all time).  I’m now grabbing for my ankle/leash everytime i get blasted by a wave.  I’ve watched my boards go sailing into the beach multiple times now.  Luckily my Pod made it unscathed.  My baby-blue Stretch however didn’t do so well.  Paddled back to the rocky shore, found it laying upside down with the tip broken off.  Nothing a little ding-dough can’t fix!
