Yea the title pretty much sums it up. I am usually not the one to express my feelings about being injured (3rd time in 1 year) but I feel like explaining a few things. First, being injured sucks as most of you know. Some might enjoy being injured meaning you get to take a break from everything and have a legit excuse to not do anything. Being injured 3 times in one year is not bad luck, or some extraterrestrial  phenomenon but just a good indication that well maybe its that time in my life where I need to reevaluate everything. The most ironic part about it all is that all three injury’s were not from extreme critical maneuvers but from completely mindless floaters, and 1 foot airs. There were so many other moments in my sessions last year that I thought to myself , ” If i try and land this I am for sure going to break my legs,” but nothing would happen when I did. The injury’s always happen when least expected meaning that instead of when your ten feet in the air thinking your gonna break your leg  it never happens, but when your doing a floater over a two foot wave and a backwash hits…BAM! Anyways I just wanted to let people know that with the new website and the new year starting we are going to be a little behind with content (videos). I do have a trip planned in march which will hopefully give me enough time to heal up and get back to work. I do believe though that my knee will be healed up sooner then march and hopefully I can make my way back into the water sooner then later.  Follow us on instagram @salty_beards for other content and updates on our videos etc.
