So basically my knee has been getting more beat up than it was for the last week or so. When I anything in the trail it feels like something in my pocket is slamming up against my knee and chattering. There hasn't been anything in my pocket though. I can still walk, it hurts though, but when I ride my knee is like what the fuck.

Does that even make any sense? Has anyone ever felt anything like that?

My knee is really sore. I smashed it pretty hard a couple weeks ago. When I get up or sit down I pull some slack in my pants where my knee is so it doesn't catch because that fucking kills. I can walk on it pretty well. If the trail is rutted even a little bit it feels like something in my knee is moving and slamming up against something. I can still hit a jump though. Idk.


I just got back on health insurance for the first time in over 3 years so if it doesn't get better I can plan my trip to the doctors. I resting it today and tomorrow. Might throw a kneebrace on and see if that holds it in good.

From what it sounds like you have osgood slaughters disease. Check it out on webmd and see if it matches your description.

i feel you, my knee(s) hurt all last season and i hurt them again second day out. the only thing (for me) that worked was to stay off it. my knee didn't stop hurting last year until the season ended and it didn't stop hurting this year until i stopping skiing for like 2 weeks. either that or take a bunch of pain killers every time before you go. if you are really concerned maybe see a doctor?

Can't really stay off of it. I've been trying not to have my board strapped on too much at the mountain. I gotta see what's covered under my insurance and then I'll figure out a good route.

and sorry redbull. Usually when you hear of somebody fucking up there knee they tore something and it's all messed up in that way.
