Poo-shooting your surfboard is not a good thing. If you’re not up to date on the term “poo-shoot,” it’s a pretty wonderful turn of phrase that means, simply, letting your board squirt out behind you as you duck dive. A few poo-shoots have likely happened to most of us, and it’s really, really embarrassing. A little slip of the hands at the wrong moment can send your surfboard flying out behind you, and if you’re attempting to duck dive as another surfer is dropping in nearby… well, it can be bad. Such was the case here, at solid six-foot Kirra.
After an accidental poo-shooting episode, the poo-shooter’s leash wraps around the waist of the surfer dropping in. With the board on one side and the poo-shooter on the other, only the strongest of surfboards could be expected to stay intact. And this one? It didn’t. Which is lucky because it could have been a lot worse if it stayed intact.
