Groin strain injury

Postby Alysum » Tue Dec 11, 2018 11:14 am

I've been kitesurfing for 4 years and after the past 2 weekends I've been experiencing strained groin on both sides for 3/4 days following my session :(

I ride strapless. Is this a common injury? Any tips on how to adjust the body stance and stretches?

Thanks

Same problem here, but only on my left side. I think my problem may be when I ride toeside. The twisting may be putting stress on my groin. Or my riding style/stance is not that good, or I am just getting old... :D
