ive fractured my wrist twice. Once i got the real cast on i was back to driving, playing hockey, skiing, and lacrosse.




open up, we're coming inside. What's it feel like to know you're gonna die?

i feel for u man i broke my wrist last year on this lame ass rail but 2 weeks later I was skiing again in my cast that went all the way to my shoulder. It was real hard to grip a pole but i managed. my arm was stuck at 90 degrees for a week though sucked so bad
