If you feel ready for it its no reason why you shouldn't ski, just take it easy and make sure you won't fall on it.

Dont ski if you dont feel confident. Let it heal first a bit. It would suck to break it again while in the midst of healing up.

When I broke my wrist and it was going to interfere with skiing i asked the doctor to just leave my hard cast on all the way through my injury until it was fully healed. You can do whatever you want with the hard cast on there, but obviously I still wouldn't advise any falling unless its gently onto your non-broken wrist side.

Don't ski before you get your cast. When you get your cast you should be fine. I skied with a cast this year on my wrist and it wasn't bad. If you're gonna fall, fall onto your side but don't put your hand down. Also don't use poles, it won't work.

Well if you ski its your fucking fault when you go in for surgery that wouldn't have happened.

I knew a guy that broke his ankle mountain biking. He walked on it when he wasn't supposed to, didn't listen to his doctor, and felt he could do whatever he wanted.

Long story short, it didn't heal properly, bones died, his ankle was fused, and he's expecting to be an amputee because of it.

how the heck did you break your wrist at Thredbo? THREDBO?!

There's only three runs open and not a single jump....


Eh, I would ski, forecast with some possible snow showers, so take it chill.

I had surgery on my wrist last summer so
You will soon learn the pain of having a stupid cast.

But If you really wanna ski just get rid of the poles and take it super chill and don't fall

Ski but take it easy and film friends and stuff. Also depending on your skill level, you would probably be fine sTraight airing jumps and just 90 on 90 off rails

Knew a guy who broke his wrist in Jan and skied with it the rest of the season.

But then again, I live in Ohio. My resort's biggest jump this year was a fucking 20-25 footer.

I broke my wrist just before December break last season and it sucked, the doctor told me I was allowed to ski without poles and just take it easy. Don't try any new tricks and try not to fall and you should be just fine.
