I was going to step out of the discussion, but I have something to say.
You all need to stop posting your judgements. Your ideas are very narrow minded. YOu look at something you wouldn't do where someone got hurt and say "Oh, that's so stupid".
My age or maturity has nothing to do with the topic at hand as one person brought up.
How safe was my weekend? More safe than the people riding stand ups in the carnage section that have been posting all summer about their serious injuries. More safe than that guy in that video that was 20 feet in the air, upside diwn nhanging from the handle pole of his ski. We all know he got hurt pretty bad.
I would NOT hit a 10' wave going full speed on my stand up and jump it 30' in the air, but I also wouldn't turn to someone who did it and got hurt and say, "boy, that was pretty stupid, I bet you wont be doing that again."
I could go into more of a rant, but I'm going to save it.
you could go ahead with your comebacks about how the situations would be different... or man up, show perspective and understanding and leave me alone.
