Dave Grigsby, owner of Kayak Connection in SC and ML, and gatorgrigs on here had a pretty nasty accident while surfing today.

His face took a beating and he had to have 24 stitches.  :smt009

I saw the pic on FB and it is pretty gnarly!!  :smt010

Dave is a great guy and a PIF and AOTY and DOTY sponsor, so please join me in sending him some good vibes and positive thoughts for a speedy recovery.

Get well soon Dave!!

 :smt006

Sincerely,

Jim

YIKES!

best wishes for a speedy recovery Mr Griggs!
On the positive side, I'm so happy it wasn't worse.


it has been heavy frikkin surf out there. I've been wanting to take my little waveski out but what I saw yesterday after work was a little out of my league.

Dave isn't alone,  SC surfer Shawn Dollar fractured his neck in 4 places the other day on a 25ft wave.

Dang dude! You still look better than Fishmaster, so it could be worse! Get well soon  :smt006
Live your life, the way you want to be remembered. Don't have any regrets, we only get this one dance to make it count. Start at your eulogy, and work backwards.

It must have hurt to smile (as much as he was able to) for that picture.  That's gnarly.  Speedy recovery Dave.

I'll be alright, guys, thanks for the positive vibes.  It really has been pumping out there, I was so pissed I had to come in but nobody wants some dude gushing blood in the lineup.

See y'all at the ROOTS derby next month!
