Unregistered | what happens when you hit the board with your face during a pitchpole? I think you would either have to be thrown almost straight upward (and still have forward momentum) and somehow come down on the boats hull (board area) ... OR you would have to be thrown UNDER the cat Its more likely to happen durring a regular capsize (sideways) as someone jumps/falls of the high hull (i would think)
