if you see this guy out on the water make sure your super nice! he may be the one who stiches you up if you ever end up getting mauled by a leash like me.
just got back from the hand surgon it sounds like i partialy shredded one of the tendons on my ring finger and fully destroyed a nerve. weather or not i will have surgery is still uncertain depending on how much function comes back in a week. if all goes well i could be back riding in a month or so... I deffinitly have to thank Jeff for rushing me to the hospital and Amery and Adam for grabbing all our shit!

The unexpected happens fast - & then you find yourself in the ER. 
Heal up fast dude - Similar thing just happened to me, but a surfboard leash was the mauler
I'm off the water too

ouch dude! hope you get better quick!
Try to time your surgery for Oct 6th, then we can both get stoned on pain meds and watch Family Guy re-runs.

That is Dr. Dick Virk. He is an awesome ER doc! I had a bad dirt bike crash up in Post Canyon a few years back and Dr. Virk was on duty when I came into the ER. I was supper stressed out thinking I had totally fu%#ed up my shoulder and that I would be out of commission for a long time to come. Dr. Virk is supper mellow and has an uncanny way of calming you down and letting you know that your injury is serious but that you'll heal up and be back to doing what you love to do in no time at all. You couldn't have asked for a better guy to be your doc.
Get well soon!

Work it Tucker, milk it for all its worth.
Throw the sympthy card every chance you get.
Total Bummer you got hurt, your young and will be on the water before you know it. But you still need to milk it for all it worth.
Heal up dude.

So what actually happened? And more importantly, how do you keep it from happening...
