I feel a little better...
If you are injured or out for the season, you may post expletives and any other frustration/venting you want to get out

the first weekend of the season we made a roadtrip in the motorhome to a mountain that opened pretty early for where im at. anyways, we spent the night on the hill and built a bigass kicker with a tarp and shit, it was pretty large for one night and just three guys. first i pulled a 360 just to test her out. and it went fine. i hike back up and decide to try a linkin. i landed it just fine but a little backseet. my right arm was over my left knee somehow and the impact of the landing made my arm hyperextend over my nee so my wrist wound up hittin my shin. i shattered the whole outside of my elbow and wound up havin pins and plates and a five inch screw put in. doctor said out for 6 months. i went out two weeks after surgury. but i had to really take it easy. now its almost been eight weeks and im startin to be able to do shit. bakcflips and 7's so now im pretty pumped. anyways. thanks for letting me talk. this kinda feels like alcholoics anonomys.

injury: 4 fractured vertebrae
It does suck. My friend comes back from the hill and tells me how great it was that day and it just sucks. We built a box awhile back too, and now he wants to come over and hit it, so i pull out the GL2 and get some footage, and it just kills me because I should be hitting it up with him, but back injuries aren't something to fuck around with. So i'm gonna listen to the doc for once, and take it easy for another 4 weeks.
