What could have been.
The carnage. Shots by Mike MaxtedI was meant to be on the Gold Coast this weekend but it looked like it was going to be tiny for the contest and the waves looked altime here so I made the call to stay here for the swell.
It was'nt as big as forcasted chad and mitch we already over east for the contest so Dean Harrington flew in hoping to tow into some big pits. Saturday was a massive let down Sunday we traveled far south in search of a few spots getting a bit more swell. The waves were good I towed
Dean into to a couple of average waves early then he got a bomb just didnt make it. I went in to pick him up realised his shoulder was dislocated and he could'nt swim. I eventually got him on the ski lost two boards and almost my ski too. Took him to the beach and could'nt get it back in. A 4wd took him to the hospital they got bogged for half an hour finally arrived there they could'nt put it back in tranfered him in and Ambulance another 45 to the next hospital after about 4 hours from when it happend they got it back in. We had to drive the extra hour and wait for him at the hospital need less to say I did'nt get to catch 1 wave so yaeh I'm heading over east this weekend for the next contest at central coast to avoid any further miss haps.
