Okay so This is my first year of doing park a lot, and I've been hitting the slopes almost 3 times a week. I kind of have a tendency to try really hard shit and really hard tricks so I get injured a lot. 3 weeks ago I did a front flip and my ski poped off in the beginning of the flip. I landed on my back and it's still a little sore. 2 weeks ago I was trying a 450 onto a rail and I spun so hard my skis came off and my back slammed the rail. It's not really sore in the area slammed but when u put a pound of pressure on it it hurts an ok amount but not a ton it's also on my spine. A week after that it was spring condition day so I decided to hit big air. Since the snow was slower I decided to start from the top. Long story short I was 2 fast and I landed on flat and for the next couple days it felt like whenever I would walk people would slam jackhammers into my knees. Three days ago I was hitting the quad kink at my resort. My edge caught towards the end of the rail. right above the ski boot on the upper shin my leg slammed in to the rail. Hurts like crazy whenever you put any pressure on it. But it hurts only when you press on it not walking. Please give me ur input on what I should do.

Well since you gave me some k+ I'll substantially give you an answer. Take some ibeprofun, ice ect. it sounds like you go hard so I would maybe spend a little $$$ and buy hip protector, back protector, or whatever spot you think needs it most. Whenever I'm hitting rails or learning new tricks on rails I'll put in hip pads Cus o hate getting bruised hips

Your muscles will tighten up and get sore if you take a day off. Go for a run and stretch a little bit. Don't try to sleep it off. You will feel like shit.

I suggest you print that out and ask your parents. Do you want to end up in a wheelchair or in the operating theater? Go ask a professional coach what to do.

I'm not going to tell you to do anything. Because you'll say you'll do it but never deliver.

I'd say turn up your DIN's, but then you'd probably tore your ACLs..

Are you that guy at the resort that everyone gets really nervous when you hit a rail, because you are trying trick way outside your ability level and gets wrecked 80% of the time?

It's not that bad anymore. The only thing that hurts a ton is my shin but that's only when u press on it.every thing else is just kind of sore or almost healed....

Ice it, heat it, do some stretching, and repeat. Definitely take it easy when you're on the slopes for the next few days... But keeping it active and stretching and making sure it doesnt tense up is key. Maybe take a day off hitting features and film your mates for the day just to give the apparent injury you have sustained a rest, but still not letting it sit and tense up.... Padding could help aswell....


Hope that helps!!

I gave myself a concussion in the park about a month ago. Didn't think anything of it until I started forgetting the most common everyday things. I was at school paying for something in the caf and I almost let the clerk keep my card. Thank goodnews for honest people. That's when I knew I should probably go see the doc. Lo and behold, I had one. Basically, no matter how cool you think you are after getting thrashed, you should probably go see a doc just to be safe. Sometimes things can usually be worse than they are.
