Worst one was when the board came up and split my fore head open that was on bshares boat a few years ago now when I fall I try to cover my head

Getting hit by the bird is the only free pass I give out. The rest of the claims are on par with flamboyant soccer fouls.

Meh.. Depends on ability, once you get bored of going up and down the wave and progress to tricks you'll change your mind. Hitting your head 10 times wakesurfing is equal to one wakeboard edge head smack. My neck and top of my head take the brunt of falls.

I am always trying to get air and do spins, so I’m not just plodding along trying to stay on the wave. Still even taking a board to the head and getting bruised legs Friday m fin hits doesn’t compare to catching an edge while throwing a tantrum or a back roll. Not even close!!

Nope, never wakeboarding again. The last time I crashed I felt every bone in my spine sperate and then smacked the back of my head on the water.. Nope.. Nope.. Lol

I’m 55. The only water sport I wear a helmet for is wakeboarding. I’ve had too many back edge catches with concussion grade hits. I do watch my face on all wipeouts- kneeboarding, slalom, surf... we’ve had some black eyes too.

Not saying they are 1 for 1. Wake surfing wipeouts are smaller impacts and you think oh that wasnt so bad and repeat it 10 times all those mini concussions add up to the same as a big one.

Agreed....I have been surfing for about 5 years now and never seen a bad fall even come close to a Wakeboard wipeout....some one needs to start the best wipeout thread. I have never seen stars, had the wind knocked out of me, come up holding my back, knee, or any other extremity. I seem to do all of those at leas once per year wakeboarding.

Never had a bad surf wipeout compared to wakboarding, skiing, or barefooting. Not even close!
