word i had that problem a bit after an ACL tear but honeslty once i finally got back on the mountain i completely forgot i ever injured myself... you could also try blasting some music, may get your mind off and get you stoked...

... you just kind of have to realize yeah it hurt but if its going to happen again then your going to have to deal with it, you cant let shit like that hold you back from doing what you want...

I had the same thing happen to me in pipe after I decked bad and was out for the rest of the season.
Work back into...build your confidence back up. I get baked before but I doubt that works for many people.haha.

think of it this way. You were outta comission and are afraid that might happen again. When you get out there, theres no need to go huge. Just ski whats comfortable and fun. I've realized lately that I got other things besides skiing, so i do tricks that i know i can do, and just add style to them and have fun. Being good is fun, but being healthy is even more

if your scared dont do it. Just ski every day, get super confident in skiing and the tricks you have then once you are confident that you'lll be able to stomp it or at least land feet first then throw it. I see way too many kids gettign hrut because they are throwing tricks they arent ready for.
