Most people on here will know me either from the forums or in person. I'm a pretty experienced bocker and I definately like to try new things and some times they are stupid things as well :)
Well today on the exos I was doing something simple. Running.
Nice flat open space in cardiff bay only about 100m or so and right at the end just before I was about to slow down I slid on some moss in between the slabs and down I came.
It was funny and I'm not hurt. A little bruised in places and I did twist my knee enough to stop me bocking for the rest of the day.
Anyway here is the surface and my skid mark :)
I am just showing because it just shows that something tiny can lead to a big crash. Fortunately this wasnt a big crash this time.

It's nice to know in a way it's not just us unco-ordinated ones that come tumbling down.
Hope you're knee recovers soon Locky.

I think my knee is going to be fine, but my arse is going to ache like hell tomorrow morning!

Did the skid wreck your rubber pads??

Hows your arse today then Locky?
-
That's a very personal question!
My arse is ok ish, my wrist is pretty bad, I even suspected it was fractured this morning but it's nothing a tubey-grip and a bit of gaffer tape cant fix :)

Hope you feel better soon Locky
Moss is a killer it has had me about 3 times on those marly block pave things
Take care of the Wrist mate I recon I fractured the one that I shattered in a backwards fall about 2 weeks before I did the main fall
Gaffer tape fixes all :Claugh:
