#4278, "RE: Can't Surf Because Of Your Knees?!"
In response to In response to 7


          

Old, what's up with that? Damm punk ass kids, always thinking they're better than everyone else.

I have three suits, ranging from 2mm, to 4mm. It's the fact that I can't pull it on all the way without fighting the neckline that kills me. 57degree water constantly flushing down your butt has a way of chilling you. I just can't pee enough to offset that cold flow.I think I'll axe the neckline and sleeves on the 4mm. Make my own longjohn.

TB, Brian actually isn't too far off. My knees are shot from a combo of skateboarding and kneeboarding when younger, a couple mountain biking accidents, and arthritis which is affecting all my joints. I'm not sure what the exact problem is yet. I'm waiting to go to the Dr because of some insurance issues. I can tell you that after I surf (I already longboard) I can't bend my right knee (sometimes the left too) without extreme pain. I always have nasty popping noises when my knees are bent for too long, and I sometimes have to force my leg straight with my arms. This results in lots of pain for weeks on end. After a combination of flatspells and a busy schedule I was out of the water for a month. I realized I was almost walking normal and decided I should take it easy for a while. Besides, carrying my 6'2", 270lb body is enough work for my knees. Luckily tubing doesn't cause much pain, if any. If a knee is bugging me, I just don't use that leg.
