last saturday i was skiing and over rotated a switch 5 landing sideways. i heard a pop in my knee and it felt wierd, and it was pretty strange because the first 10 seconds kinda hurt but then after i felt a little pain but only a little bit. i went to the doctor and everything. they took an x ray and nothing showed up. they say its just a sprain but they couldnt really tell because there was too much fluid or something in there. so they want me to get an mri just to make sure because it might be some kinda of ligament problem or a problem with the cartilage. but i doubt that something is wrong with my knee, its probably just a sprain, because now i can pretty much walk pretty good even without the brace. with the brace i can walk pretty much normally, i just cant bend it all the way, i can bend it to the point where its 90 degrees right now but it gets better everyday really quickly. plus tomorow is going to be the last day of the season for everyone in new jersey, and i just wanna have fun with my friends. im just gonna ride if i do go and not do any rails or jumps, but should i take the risk? because im still not sure if theres a problem with the ligaments or cartilage. theres no pain anymore and it feels fine

Go for it, but take it easy, VERY easy. If you land on the knee from a jump you could really screw something up. In fact, park would probably be out of the question if I were in your position but it's really your call. I'd take it slow on groomers and enjoy nature and skiing, so you can still enjoy it next season.

my advice, go, but take it easy, any new pains and stop. knee injuries can end your next season if not more. just have fun being outside, don't forget to stop and smell the roses.

If you hurt your knee tomorrow, it'll only get easier to hurt, until almost anything could hurt you. If there's one thing i know, take it easy to save your season, unless there's fresh pow, whichy i would doubt this time in the season

Why ask NS? I would listen to the doctor.
