Landed on a rail on my hip... the massive welt lasted 2 weeks. Flat landing to back was also fun.... Hard to sleep when every slight movement kills. And today I caught a ski pole in the face from my buddy.... I amd still bleeding. But nothing serious yet!

Smashed my face on the bottom of a pool in our hotel while on a ski trip. Black eye and cuts everywhere. And my ankle and knee have been acting up a lot lately from injuries that happened last year.

I feel for ya bro. I broke my humeral head and tore my rotator cuff last Jan. 15th. I was back out on the hill in mid march. I couldn't pole plant or crash but I still got out there. Keep your head up and you might get a few more days in this season!

dont be scared. i mine was on a pretty big jump, bigger than i was used too, and i overshot as well. if ur trying ur first, ideal conditions would be a pretty small pow jump, then u dont have to worry about timing, just huck quite hard.

My injury isn't due to skiing but skiing made it worse. I broke my ankle in October and ate shit on my face hard a few weeks ago and may have re-broken it.

my ankle jus ended my season, and it started out from a non skiing injury. then it just gave out in my ski boot, despite all the PT ive been doing that i requested-not a doctor. anyways mri results came today, i need 1 to 3 screws put through my tibula and my fibula(i think one will only be half way through my fibula, and that one will stay for 9 months) because i ahve like 3 or 4 torn ligaments, bunch of this and that like edema of marrow and soft tissue along with a long list of other smaller shit. its mostly the ruptured ligaments and membrane that wont heal on its own.

if someone told me a year ago i was going to have to have an injury like this during ski season i would have assumed knee, or even neck or back. but ankle... never thought thatd be a big deal in a ski boot, boy was i wrong.
