The product, in the report: Slick Lizard Performance 41 boogie board (yellow)
We bought a Slick Lizard Performance 41 boogie board on 9/5/12 at Super Wings in Avon, NC. We had forgotten our boogie board at home. The one we forgot was thick foam and had served us successfully for several years with no problem. My husband took the boogie board in the ocean at Cape Hatteras National Seashore that afternoon. We had witnessed the lifeguards removing the lifeguard sign while we were there because it was after Labor Day. I had kept my eyes on my husband while he was swimming. I became aware that he no longer had the boogie board & was in trouble. I could see he was trying hard to make progress towards the shore but not getting anywhere. I ran up to a man standing nearby who was also watching him with concern. I called 9-1-1 but forgot to press Send b/c I was so upset. I also saw the yellow boogie board with the broken cord wash up on shore. I retrieved it. At some point, the “right” wave propelled my husband [REDACTED] towards the shore and he survived. He is in good physical shape and has a grit and determination most ordinary people do not have. We believe he survived because of that. His breathing was labored for at least 40 minutes. His body was sore for 2 days. The thin boogie board cord was ripped apart. We have the board and cord and I can send photos. The [REDACTED] strap remained intact but the thin cord tore. We feel an obligation to our fellow citizens who might purchase this board and unknowingly trust it to provide some protection in case of dangerous unseen hazards in the water. I have read a similar incident from a user on Amazon.com
