Ever hurt your glans in the surf? If you have, it’s all Tom Carroll‘s fault.

TC made the flying kick-out chic, of course, during his various Pipemasters heroics.

The old pinched bell-end on kick out is the curse of the intermediate surfer.

You kick out hard and fast (trying to be rad) but in your rapid lie down, get the head of your ol fella trapped under your own weight against the deck of your board.

In extreme cases, a sensation of crunched gristle accompanies the sharp pain.

It is normal if your ‘nads retreat in this situation, or any other genital trauma.

There is no real cure except count to a hundred.

And btw, fuck flying kick outs. It’s not 1992.
