I got knocked out while kneeboarding once when I faceplanted into the water hard. Tubing, kneeboarding or skiing without a life jacket is just plain stupid.
Although once when I was a kid, maybe 7(?), I got trapped under my kneeboard, and the straps didn't let go, so I couldn't get back above water. The spotter had to dive out and rescue me. That was terrifying, although I'm glad it didn't keep me from going back out there.
