Wait wait wait...
HOW THE HELL DO YOU BRUISE A PALM?

And, have you checked the bottom of your feet for bruises?

The clutches that hold the sails up have to be opened to let the sails down. Basically, they're leavers that you flip from one flat position to the other. When the sail's under a lot of pressure they don't want to flip and you have to whack 'em really good. Voila. Two bruised palms. (Mostly the fleshy part by my thumbs)
