so its been two years since my last broken bone. I guess its that time of year again. 270 on to a sketchy poop rail to over-rotate and fall forward on my left thumb. Skiers thumb earlier this year. And now its broken.

Whats some of your sustained injurys and how long did it take to get over it.

Cork 7 gone wrong. It sucks most definitely, but you learn to live with your burdens on your back. I'm not going to sit and pour sympathy to myself, ive been to physical therapy, massage therapy, and the gym for the past two years. I'm doing as good as i can right now but i do have my restrictions, used to love skiing, lacrosse, etc.. now i am permanently banned from it all. For LIFE. but i still ski, its a must

sorry, 5 yeats since any broken bones. from age 5-16 i broke several bones. an arm, a leg, my right foot, and multiple fingers. none of them were broken while skiing, only the broken foot took me away from skiing. normal recovery times for all of them, no residual pain

i was by the chalet once and saw a snowboard kid go off the lip of the rainbow rail and he caught his toe edge went forward and landed first on both of his wrists! You could hear them "SNAP" At that moment he screamed MOTHERFUCKKK!

Damn dude... That sucks!!!

I just broke my talus [ankle bone] in half in my left foot; and 3 metatarsals and one dislocated toe in my right foot.

I'm still healing...As all that only happened last weekend. Haha.

Hope your thumb get's feeling better. Do you need surgery?
