i got a broken arm my first time, although i hadn't actually done more than put the skis on
i also seriously screwed my shoulder up one. it was fine while i was skiing but i couldnt lift my arm high enough to reach the door knob back at the hotel. i then made it 1000X worse doing thow-ins at my soccer game the next weekend (we had no subs and a high pain tolerance means i have a habit of ignoring injuries). never got it checked out but i couldn't do a pushup let alone my weight training for track for a couple of months

Under-rotated a corked 5.

Torn ACL - 100% torn through
Torn MCL - 50% torn through

6 months of crutches if I remember correctly. 13 total months of not being able to jog or run at all on that leg...including all the rehab.

Ahhhhhh god that's awful... I don't even want to think about that, made me feel sick to my stomach... that's terrible, hope everything's okay now tho?

I think my worst was over-shooting a small-ish jump and doing a knee to face (amazingly I hit right above my kneecap on my thigh with my teeth causing severe bruising/welt but nothing else), minor concussion one time my first season.

Overshot a 40 footer by about 40 feet. Broke my 3rd and 4th lumbar. Three breaks total. Had to wear a back brace for a year, and it still gets sore as balls from certain stuff.

Jeez that's fucked up. Must have been really unnerving to say the least. After a really hard workout or a hard day of skiing mine stiffens up pretty bad, and then the next morning I have to stretch it out good. I get muscle spasms really easily there now, but other than that I've been pretty lucky with recovery.

I've had shoulder surgery and the whole nine yards, but nothing is scarier than a back injury.

Back injuries suck because the back actually holds like everything up together.
To me painkillers are the best ! addicting tho. But I also get T.e.n.s theraphy, they just stimulate your back with eletricity to help the blood to circulate normally, really help. I also get cortisone shots, they are sooooo goood ! damn it feels good after those haha. Constent back pain in anyway though ! life has to suck , but hey , were not dying

I always seems to get drawn to and post in these since I have a pretty good story, which a lot have probably heard.

Basically I landed in between the two jumps on a channel gap set up. I thought I was pretty decent at first, but I knew I had to of broken my leg. Well I got helicoptered out. And I spend 2+ months in the hospital. I completely shattered my right tibia, tibia plateau, as well as my knee and knee joint. I just had my 14th procedure last Monday. I have 5 rods/plates in my leg as well as 21 screws. I have no feeling or movement mid-shin down, so my foot + ankle just sort of hang there. I suppose you can say it's paralyzed. No skiing this season, and who knows about future ones still at this point. It's been a super rough journey but its getting better, it's just taking longer than I would hope for.
