Broken left ankle
Compound fracture on my right
Both were skateboarding
I've yet to do anything serious free skiing but if I do I hope it's nothing to do with my knee. I'll take a broken bone but a torn ligament hell no.

fractured: elbow, thumb, ankle, wrist, vertebrae
torn: ACL(x2), Meniscus, MCL, Hip flexor
dislocated: hip, knee
4 diagnosed concussions
stitches: hand, elbow
Also had road rash on 60% of my body when I slammed longboarding at like 30 mph. I was a huge noob that didn't know how to fall. So I slid on my body instead of trying to roll a bit.

I think thats it.

Broke my finger from being a noob in soccer.

Fractured my wrist from being a noob at roller blading.

Big road rash from being a noob at long boarding and bombing a stupidly big hill.

Roadrash on face- Skateboarding incident that resulted in broken bone

Roadrash on ass- Embarrassing biking accident where the seat broke, I landed on the tire, which pulled my sweatpants down, and jammed my leg into the broken seat, leaving me with a puncture wound two inches from my "gear," roadrash on my butt so bad I had to stand or kneel and sleep on my stomach for two days, and my pants and boxers around my ankles on the middle of a crowded bike path.

Don't know how I forgot that one.

Damn that's rough man. Just tore my ACL and meniscus about a week and a half ago. Granted the rest of my season is over. Any idea how long yours will take to heal?

I broke my pelvis at Snowbird, there was no snow there, I had to fly home to the east coast (super painful) and now its been doing nothing but dumping snow. Recovery time is 4-6 weeks, hopefully be able to ski after St Pattys Day.

Small concussion - skiing (got shitwhipped landing sideways on a knuckle)

Sprained left and right wrists - skiing
