A few seasons ago I fell, and got skiers thumb. Not too bad it’s just a thumb but ever since it takes absolutely nothing to re sprain my thumb and it’s fucking annoying. Any advice or recommendations. Been thinking about trying to find a slim thumb brace.
I wore this mueller thumb brace for a lot of last season because I got skiers thumb, I could fit it over my glove and it worked pretty nicely to let my thumb heal and let me ski at the same time. I couldn’t really hold a pole though, but other than that it’s a pretty slim and strong brace
Try falling on ur face instead of putting your hand down that’ll prevent it lol. Make a “broken leg prevention” thread next, im sure you’ll get some great answers.
keeping the straps off of your wrists can help if you use poles. Only time I have gotten skiers thumb was from keeping my poles in my hand when I ate shit.
What helps me is muscle memory from being a running back, I always subconsciously tuck my arms like I'm being tackled and don't want to lose the football.
Ditch your straps. Teaches you to pole plant better and you don't have impalement hazards attached to you when you slam. So what if you have to hike back uphill to gather your gear.
