Replying to Shinbang - I hate you!
So, here is the deal. I've been skiing for a solid five seasons or something. Every season I get a horrible shin bang, I can maybe ski two days or something and then I have to rest up cause the pain in my shins are just too much to handle. I've haven't actually been skiing in a resort yet this winter, but I've been shredding alot in my backyard, hitting rails. The first couple of weeks everything was going good and skiing was super fun. Then the shinbang started to come back. I have been doing alot of massaging after each session, trying to prevent it, but its back again. I don't know if its chronic or whatever, but I'm kinda thinking about seeing a physio regarding this. I don't know if you guys might have some tips, maybe some exercises that you do to prevent this? If you know how I can make it stop, please contribute. I have heard about people using sportstape before each session, trying to hold it back. I haven't tried it, anyone who got some experience with this? I'm really sick of this and its ruining my skiing, I'll do whatever I can to make it stop. Thanks.
