Nice work Mr Cawthorne.  Sent you an email with Kel's contact details too.

Cheers Mate, Been working hard lately so shouted myself the day off.

Brad was nice and flat today at the grand. No good about vando, it not good seeing something happen to someone on the water.

Heard he was burling the water for the shark fishermen 

Hey Vando, not good to have a serious crash as I only too well know, glad you are alright mate, hey take it easy

Ouch!! 

Get Well soon.

Ouch!!

Vando,

Ow, Geez that sticky tape is going to hurt pulling it off.  Was it head into boom or mast (or otherwise)?  Get well soon ol' boy.

Yer 4 stiches behined the tape.

yer face plant into the boom

yer sorry i couldnt smile for the camera

Yes he hit the boom lucky he has got teeth

He cant talk but he can still type

did the boom repair hold up? ouch,nice speed  though  you'll have to grow a moe now boy good luck shaving

Shit Vando looks bloody sore hope it heals soon. Hey Odin when do speed sailors use common Sense?

where it needs to be used.. some things are not worth it when it gets to hectic and theres always a line that needs to be drawn!!!!!

Ouch Vando that must have hurt. Nice speed with that gear, well done.

Ouch! unlucky Vando...

yer odin never crashes or pushes the limits he still has training wheels on his boards

Nice speed for a big board Vando, hard way to get it.

Yeah Odin, I wasn't being too serious, sometimes you gotta forget about speed and just have a safe fun sail. Shame tides weren't right for Burrum this week :(

Nice speeds Vando.  Hope for a quick recovery.

Bloody hellll  Vando it looks like a home wax job gone wrong. . You should have got your misss to help.

Seriously,  i hope you are back on the water soon and it's lucky your not eating food through a straw

Vando??? ...that is a stunned mullet photo (with a hair lip, no doubt )

I recommend a liquid diet to ease the pain - beer &/or red wine - lotsa antioxidants.

Should heal quicker than the foot - hope so,  cheers

Looks like he does every other time I seen him, probably slightly more hanscom than before, the stitches will probably make him more hanscom than ever, and he will be bashing the shelies away with a busted mast end.

Vando, mate hope all that is dented, is your top lip, take it easy and mend fast. You spent too long limping on that crook foot last season.  You dont need a threepete  

PS. Wineman, I had to walk away after reading your coment about the stunned mullet look LMFAO

Is it time we realy started a campain for the full face helmet jobs?

Mate what a clasic photo, I can see Choc posting it in the caption thread 

All BS aside, I hope your up and flying soon 

Get well soon Vando....from Lyn and Herby/

That looks very ouwweee Vando. I bet you wished you had a shave that morning. It will be a while now ;)

Geez headup Captain

Vando!

Huge speeds on the big gear but looks like you found the limit!

Must have been a fair bit of claret! Did you know where you were?

Hope you heal up quick. JJ on our mob had a similar set of stitches and was soon back on the water with a full face helmet.

Take care

Wineman I feel like a stund mullet mate not much better this morning though it is windy outside hmmmm maybe not lol.

hey Mineral yer getting close to a year on since I fractured my ankle no borken bones this time luckily.

Lao might have to look into a full face helmet standard one wouldnt of helped this time.

I suggest GPSTC offer full face helmets as their fundraising sale items! We all need one. Maybe with a team logo on the side like the american footballers have...

Gutsy effort Vando -just love that competitive spirit !!

Get better soon ....

smashin it! Great speeds for big board.

thanks Slowie, was it worth it hmmm.

auch Vando

maybe is time for all of us to get helmets with that wire protection in front of face like hockey players have ;)

Wish you quick recovery Vando and back on the game soon

Vando in a months time

^ Very funny Choco.

Where me chopper sunnies

Full face helmet for jetskiing.
