so i get home from school today, and i go on my porch behind my house. there is a banister there about 3.5 feet high. then it drops to my yard and its about a 5 foot drop, and you have to clear a 5 ft. flower bed. anyways im just jumping up and stalling and jumping off and shit. so after a little bit i go up 180 to stall. jump off like behind my nose grab (if you will) 3 off cause its on a hill, much easier to land switch. i land on this divider that separates the grass from dirt its a brick. well anyways i land like half of it on my foot, couldn't walk for a good half hour. i think it's alright. so kids, be careful before ski season.

one of my friends separated his shoulder/fractured his collar bone 3rd run of the season. he could have easily prevented his fall, but he wasnt expecting the snow to be so hard.

I think he was just randomly stalling and spinning off shit in his shoes. I do it all the time

last season on his first day out, and on brand new skis, my friend tried a 360 of a little lip and broke his shoulder. He had just made the AAA basketball team at school that day too.He couldn't play Basketball OR ski for the rest fo the season.

yeah me too, but the first thing that comes to mind when i get hurt is, FUCK, am i going to be able to ski? this summer i had a few nasty bike crashes, nothing broken, just slammed into a few trees. everytime, first thing i thought was how long the injury would last for haha
