Just shattered my collar bone while trying to nollie and catching my tips at Breck the other day. Surprisingly not bad, I'm just glad it's not a knee. So far I have multiple ribs, collar bone, a concussion (if that even counts), and a broken thumb. List em off...what have you broken while skiing?

Same here man. Broke my collarbone 4 years ago. Just popped from a green into a blue. Tips went into the ground first on the landing, stuck my arm out to break the fall, and snap.

Only "severe" injury has been a concussion or two.

This should have been way worse but thankfully I didn't bust anything up. Skis are fine too.

Broken nose, two broken ankles/lower tibia. Surprisingly not from skiing, aside from that I messed my shoulder up pretty good while trying a rod 5, landed fine then did one of those off balance bails to the hip, started rolling down the landing and my ski basket got caught under my ski and torqued my arm in the opposite direction, went to let go but the strap stayed on and hyper extended the fuck out of it. Not sure if it was a partial tear of something, dislocation that popped back in or what. The doc said, “come back in two weeks if it still bothers you,” I couldn’t sleep on it for 3 months and that was with rehabbing it almost daily.

broke a rib, fractured both heel bones and the bone above the heel bone, shattered elbow + broken thumb, and most recently a broken collarbone + heavy concussion. feeling ready to tone it down a bit, shit don't heal like it used to even though I'm still in my early 20's.

Broke my left wrist twice - once playing Ultimate Frisbee, once because I slipped during a water balloon fight

Right patella - caught an edge going pretty fast and just got all twisted up

Both elbows - Happened at the same time skating, trying to ollie over the tiniest little crack in the road. Had to get two pins and wire in my left one. Had to go on medical leave from work and live with my parents for three months

Pinky toe - kicked my best friend's ankle while playing barefoot soccer

Both pinky fingers - one playing dodgeball in middle school, one getting caught in a car door

Broke my wrist falling off a golf cart, broke it again mountain biking (got knocked out at the same time), fractured my collar bone mountain biking again, and fractured my elbow skateboarding. Getting knocked out and breaking a bone was the worst by far

radius and ulna trying my first backie at COC in 2011. Wrist and collarbone seem like the most common skiing breaks.

I caught my tips doing a nollie going fast as shit this season but was unbelievably okay. Just broke my leg a few weeks ago from screwing up jumping off a mogul. Broke my thumb while first learning rails. I ditched my poles for a few seasons after that. Broke my arms a few times and my nose from non skiing things. Pretty bummed my season is over but I’m ready to get stronger this summer and come back next season to win the x-games

got my finger jammed between two basketballs in 5th grade, but nothing from skiing...I tend to have the biggest bones around although my mind says elsewhere. Means I'm tough, but cumbersome and its hard to do any kind of rotation easily or maybe I'm just too stiff. i needa send it more than I do.
