I had acl reconstruction about a month ago, and was told no skiing this year at all, Late season sking if VERY lucky. So that sucked. Yesterday, went to the doctor's and he said 'ya youll be able to ski full on right around the holiday season' and I can play non-check hockey at thanksgiving. FUckin righteous.

i love it so much it is something i cant stay away from. i talked to my soccer coach who is a race coach and he said racers do it all the time. i think that racers sometimes take it harder in the ace then jumpers.

i didnt wait till after ski season, because my main sport is lacrosse, so I had surgery around that season.

true physical therapy sucks getting back in shape sucks missing muscles sucks crutches for a month and a half suck, stupid knee leg brace suck, but not i just have a neo prene sleeve. im ready to bash it up. i will take it easy for a little while i think. or hope.

i agree. and then not being able or allowed to drive for a month sucks too. in the end its worth it when you are able to ski, run, skate, etc again. its crazy how fast the muscles just disappear from not using them after surgery. takes a decent amount of work to get it back. well worth it though

ha driving i kept to it. i had a straight leg brace and my seat went back far enough so that could sit and just move my foot and hit the gas. but after surgery i had a straight leg brace for 2.5 days not to bad. my doctor was way cool i had orthroscopic so my knee isnt all messed with scars. i what sucks the most is getting rid of the limp i had trouble with that it was like permanent on me.

I did the same last year. Recover quicker and listen to everything they tell you to do at physio.
