so i got a concussion yesterday at keystone doing a fs switch up to bs switch up on a flat rail, made the first sw up, and whent for the next one and whent straight to my back and whiplashed my head. It was weird cause i have had a concussion before, but this time the symtoms came later. like i remember the whole day, but anyways, 10 mins later back at my condo my vison in my right eye was weird, my right arm and right side of my lip whent numb, i had a crazy headache and was super tired. I whent back that night (saturday) and talked to my neibor who is a doctor and he said that i had a concussion and cant ski for 2-4 weeks. I had it all planned to go to VT Open (to compete) on tuesday and was super excited and now i cant go. I know this is a pretty weak complaint because most are like tearing there acl's and shit, but im still mad. cool?

get a fucking helmet... so many people i see in the park at northstar and when i lived in CO just didnt wear helmets... it saves you. but maybe your were too cool for a helmet, you'd be riding the VTO if ya had one on.
