I did, many years ago, in exactly the same manner. *Took 6 weeks before
the cast came off, but on the 5th week I went snowboarding. *Figured it
was stronger with the cast on than the following week with the cast off.
Doctor wasn't too happy, but he didn't say I should not go.

The only thing with a beach holiday is that you need to keep the cast
clean and dry. *Sand and sea don't exactly help in that regard.

maybe i should get my board de-tuned.

You slid backwards right? *So that's not going to help. *De-turning the
board may help to prevent you catching an edge and falling forwards. *
Sliding out backwards is down to not having enough grip.
