QuaggyThis looks to be St. Charles in Bend Oregon!
If this happened yesterday or today, we had an interaction and didn't even know it!
The orthopedic docs we've had on call the last 48 hours are fantastic, I have no doubt you'll have a quick recovery.
Wishing you all the best OP
GAFFFFFERsnapped my tib/fib right above the ankle last July on a trampoline. Had a plaster splint for a week or two then got a normal cast. Had the cast for about a month before getting into a walking boot. Then I started doing PT 2 days a week and was able to fully recover. Had the walking boot for less than a month and was able to start doing stuff like skating with just an ankle brace by mid september. It took a while to build up strength in my leg again but I was ready to ski like normal after about 4-5 months.
RparrNot me, but a good friend of mine broke his in a near identical way this past summer. He's been skiing this year no problem, he was pretty "fully" healed around 4 months. I think he has permanent hardware in his that won't come out though

EggMannNah fr thats a gnarly injury. Good luck with recovery. I haven't had anything that bad but people I know have recovered pretty fine after a few months with surgery and some hardware. They did have to spend quite a bit of money though, surgery ain't cheap.
Good Luck I hope you recover fast.
edaiDone tibia twice in one leg, fibula once in the other. Metal rod from my knee to ankle. It’s a long recovery process, watch out for your mental health. Be serious about PT. Take something like bone-restore, significantly helped my recovery time. Eat vegetables.
Don_KedicQuestion because im curious,
what were your DiNs set at?
EggMannI have not thanks for asking

SlowbroYup broke my right tib under-rotating a dub misty 9 on tramp on my 15th birthday (early june) and was in a full leg cast for a while. I gained about 25 pounds, played a heroic amount of video games, and got really good at skipping rocks. Leg looked awfully skinny when the cast came off, I don't think I was allowed on a trampoline until October, but all was fine when the season came around. I was in physio for a few months, I don't remember anything being too hard or very painful.
Honestly not the worst thing ever. Make sure to take long walks (crutches?) and keep up with upper body exercise so you don't get fat and sad.
EggMannTib fib snap on trampoline is crazy. How did that happen
SlowbroVery bouncy tramp, friend was standing on the springs so there wasn’t as much give. I landed a bit forward coming out of the misty and boom, dead ankle.
EvanMeyerJust wanna say thanks for all the responses in here, seeing how many people have done this and made full recoveries is reassuring. Currently on day 3 post op and surprisingly don’t feel horrible most of the residual pain is just in the knee and ankle now where the rod and screws were put in. Shits still stiff as a board though and have maybe 1inch range of motion in both ankle and knee. One thing I noticed this morning though is that anytime I move my knee it feels like it’s pulling on the staples could not feel the incision through the bandage wrap the last two days but pretty apparent this morning.
