Are you sure no one has pissed on them yet. Wind can carry pee a long way you know.

While were on the subject, how far is the bathroom from the beach? I always see guys in the bushes. I don't like the beach smelling like a restroom.

have you been eating the berries L.M.G.? hmm.....

actually from what i've seen at s.i., if you pick the ones over about 3 ft. high you're safe. you probably should factor in the wind, the gusts might blow the piss up a little higher.

Though I am new to this sport I did want to add my $ .02 worth.

After checking my safetys / quick release lately I have found that, as mine has PVC tubeing, after a while it can get totally stuck making it really hard to release, so EVERY TIME I now launch I totally take apart my quick release and put it back together...

Now I can see more advanced riders not doing this but I (for one) am so freeked out obout this sport that I will do everything in my power to check my safety system EVERY time I go on the water.

ALso, every time I come in I try to touch my safety so , for one, I know where it is but also so I remember I have it and should use it if need be.

So, this might only be pertanant to new riders but I really think everyone should check their safty more often...

Pissing on the blackberries is just plain wrong, and I, for one, never do that. I make it a point to always piss on the asparagus instead. But then, those of you who eat the asparagus out there probably already guessed that.

Jezz, you guys and girls took that and ran away with it.

I always check (rotate) my safty too. I'm not really into eating berries since I sucked the juice out of a few of them...
