so after two years in a row of tearing my acl playing football i was smart enough to give that up. i still kept on wait lifting and yesterday when i was doing my power cleans on my last rep my knee gave out on me and i was not able to walk on it. so i went to see the doctor and he said good news is your acl seems fine, bad news is you tore your meniscus,he made me go get an MRi and i have to wait til next tuesday to find out what they'll have to do for surgery. So NS will i most likely miss another ski season? if you think so vibes please!

I don't think it will be your whole season, you may miss a portion of it though. But good luck in surgery dude, +vibess!

meniscus isn't as bad as acl but you'll probably miss a couple months

lol im just breakin your balls

I would try and schedule the earliest possible surgery (since it's inevitable) that way you can be strength training/rehabbing through the winter and hopefully get some late season outtings

your obviously familiar enough with the injury and training in general...so hopefully you wont have to big of an issue rebounding

Mensicus is like 2 weeks to a month recovery if you get the surgery. So no your ski season is not fucked.
