[@DalePearce-g7j]

I broke my leg in 2 places, I was back on the water in 7weeks at the age of 70 still doing loops at 74 don't give up 😊

[@MoritzMauch]

Sounds good! Hopefully I will be on the water at that age. Best way to keep youg

[@runfreak2]

All the best and heal up fast to shred again

[@MoritzMauch]

thank you very much!!!

[@boomwindsurfing2744]

Oh man. Feel so sorry for you. Impressive how chilled you’re being about it - shit happens but still it’s not good. Hope the diagnosis shows limited damage and you’re back on the water ripping it soon 👊🤙💥

[@MoritzMauch]

Yeah, I feel being to negative about it doesn't help at all. Still most important health aspect is mental health so I always try to keep that as positive as possible. From there on work step by step to get back on track physically. It's been 2 weeks since injury and tomorrow I finally get news.

[@bertvwveldman3931]

And great room mates to, well treated by team espanja

[@MoritzMauch]

Yeah definitely made my time a bit easier in Maui

[@zacmitty7851]

That is the worst nightmare: looking at windy Hookipa and not being able to go out!! Hope it heels quickly.

[@MoritzMauch]

It definitely is very painful, specially in epic conditions.

[@lafgreg]

How tight is your footstraps? I broke my foot 10 years ago and since then I ride enourmous footstrap doing mostly freestyle, there is no other way for me because even then sometimes on flat landing shaka and flaka I can feel my foot is under pressure

[@MoritzMauch]

Pretty big, it was just such a strong impact... it wasn't even that the foot got stuck it was just a super strong impact....

[@hmsgeoff]

Sux! But I’m sure you’ll come back stronger!

[@MoritzMauch]

yeah I guess so, hopefully not to long out of the water
