This was Marc's first injury of the summer, not actually from wakeboarding though., but couldn't wakeboard for about a week or two. He got this one trying to get a trailor loose from the hitch of his brothers truck, so he jumped on the bumber, slipped off and sliced his leg on the exhaust. His dad fixed it up by giving him seven stitches and told him he couldn't wakboard because his bindings would cause the stiches to open up, but he could surf. So here is a picture of him surfing--
Marc got hurt again the first time back out wakeboarding after getting his stiches out. This time he ruptured his eardrum doing a 360. He got off axis during his rotation and landed strait on his ear. It drained water and gross stuff for a few weeks, but it is finnaly starting to get better. He has gotten a couple concussions from wakeboarding and after rupturing his eardrum he decided he should wear a helmet. The helmet looks kind of dorky, but will keep him alive!
This is his most recent injury from just a couple days ago. He hurt his arm/shoulder doing a tantrum, which is basically a backflip. He is not sure how exactly he hurt it because his left arm isn't on the rope for this flip, and it is a flip he is pretty comfortable doing and does it as a warm up for other flips and tricks. But it is feeling better and he will be able to wakeboard this weekend when we go to his cabin! I on the other hand wont be able to wakeboard because my new binding are still not in yet! Oh well.
