Huge thanks to Chanson and Gman! Those guys sacrificed their session so I could get to the hospital and have my dangily shoulder put back into place 
Also thanks to Sasquatch for the handfull of pills and water in the Beacon parking lot
 
If anyone needs someone to shoot pics or video for the next few weeks hit me up  |

Actually the cause was kind of lame. I was lit on my 12m doing nose presses.....caught a toeside edge going mach 3 and faceplanted. The kite powered up when I hit the water...that and the opposing current streached my left arm over my head. Lager pop followed and I came up seeing stars.
The worst part was the 30+ min body drag in the current back to the launch.  |

Damn, that really sucks dude. Heal up quick! You can probably shave some recovery time off by being a badass.

| Joby broken ankle winching, LanceK broken tooth surfing, Chooch got his arm ripped out kiting. Everything happens in sets of three, so that means I'm safe! Dangerous behavior on! |

Shitty... From the sound of it, it was dislocated? Better than a break. Either way, though, bummer, man!

Sorry to see you down Chooch. That body drag had to be f*&^ing miserable. In all seriousness, similar to something the Vietnamese did to torture POWs.. Way to tough it out!!!!!!!! 
Take care of that shoulder and heal up! |

chooch sorry to hear about what happened.
I was on the water with you but wasn't close enough to really know what had happened.
I was thinking about this all weekend.
usually when I kite with my close buddies, we always kite together. that way we can yell at each other when jumping, show each other up, etc.
being from Seattle, I haven't kited much with chooch.
I turned around saw him over by the launch and figured he was just a wind snob since it was a bit punchy. I had no idea. If this happened with someone I kite with more, I would have better understood the situation.
I'll have an extra HD camera with brand new waterhousing and ladder tripod setup for the slider jam.
let me know if you're up for the task. just press record and pan. I'll carry it all down and set it up.
heal up.
