Roughly two months ago I managed to get the line wrapped around my right binding whilst waiting for a deep water start. I realised and screamed at the driver to stop which he did. However while I was attemting to untangle my leg he punched the power (Nautique 210) and I was towed for approximately 20 metres upside down thinking I was about to drown! No sympathy was given after the incident and to add insult to my injury, the experienced driver/rider said " dude, you've had 3 weeks of this, imagine what my whole life's like." He then walked up the hill leaving me with my girlfriend and sister to hobble up to the car. Four days later I returned to the UK where after 2 days I went to the doctors as my leg really hurt. 3weeks later sfter a scan on my right leg, I have been diagnosed as having a hairline fracture on my lower Tibia and also messing up the Cartilage in my knee. I am never one to complain about things, period, but I'm really annoyed at the wakecamp in Europe where I sustained this injury. Luckily for me I have private medical insurance so recieved promnt attention in the UK, what if I hadn't?! Has anyone ever had a similar incident? I feel like I need to pursue this further, but I hate the whole " where there's blame, there's a claim"? Help.....
