Just take it easy and don't use poles.  As long as you don't fall, you should be fine.

i broke my collar bone in 3 places and still raced, just go skiing and stop complaining. pop those pain killers or light up a joint and go!

That's a good idea too.  You could still hang out at the hill, but not ski or get re-injured.

Dude I broke my collar bone because some fatass chick landed on me, and that shit straight snapped! I had to wear one of those back braces for a long time I remember. And I remember it hurting so bad that I had to keep my arm in a sling to so that it wouldn't bounce around, because every little movement hurt so bad. That was a long time ago tho.12 years later I still feel it when winter time is around. Somehow the cold air messes it up even long after it heals. I remember it being about a 2 month process til it fully healed. I know for a fact I didn't go skiing or anything else to extreme till it was healed tho.

You need to chill. He was just telling him that it could be way worse and how the hell is it his fault he blew out his ACL. Injuries suck and im pretty sure no one chooses to get them. The point is that there are people on this site with far worse injuries that arent making threads to complain about it

Dude if you blew out your knee you'd tell him to shut up too. So kid, suck it. Bones heal back to normal, fucked up knees are forever.

On top of not being able to ski, you can't walk for several weeks, you have to go through the pain of stretching and gaining mobility before surgery, only to have get cut up and PT the shit out of it AGAIN, take a bunch of shitty drugs, sit on your ass and watch your friends go to and from the mountains climbing, skiing, biking hiking for six months while you sit around at home.

And yet, neither I, nor AlexG, nor seemeski, nor most of the other people that have hurt themselves this year have complained about it.

I'm not ripping on the thread creator. People can't appreciate what it's like being hurt until they are, and it sucks. If he had broken a collarbone when he tore his knee he would be skiing by now. He has the right to be frusterated

I've strained both joints on the end of my clavicle.  The doctor said I was better off breaking it cuz it would heal faster.

sucks man, i broke my collarbone in mid march last year, by the end of april, i was able to ride around gently and do some small kickers/rails. just dont fall. i filmed a bit while i was out. you gotta make sure that once the bones are knitted back together, you keep stretching and doing the physio on the shoulder, otherwise you could lose mobility. i cant grab true nose anymore :)

as for current injuries, i have shredded my meniscus and have a tear to my ACL. i can walk fine, then my meniscus falls in between the knee joint, and i hit the deck in pain (imagine someone treading full weight on your penis). the cool thing is, i have to wait 8 weeks for surgery on an injury that isnt even that bad, to only then find out if i need ACL surgery. this could be my first full 12 month out injury (2 months and counting so far). oh, and i did all that doing a regular 270 out, landing cleanly. knees are shit.
