I broke my kneecap snowboarding. I had a total of 3 surgeries until it was all said and done, and the whole ordeal took a little over a year. I currently have 2 titanium screws in my knee cap fo' life.

In 2007 I tore my groin hitting this shitty box. The lip was mostly haybale and I ended up getting one ski on the box with my other leg stuck inbetween the box and the lip.

It took a month to heal and I have a mass of scar tissue larger than a golfball.

After that, I hit my head, had a seizure, pissed myself and got a heli lift out. That set me back 2 weeks.

skiing: dislocated shoulder.

snowboarding: I rode a snowboard down metal cheese grater stairs to win a new jacket. unfortunately i fell on the last 3 and fractured my radius in my right arm. the jacket is cool and all, but the fracture blows.

Skiing = neck sprain/concussion, 2 weeks

Snowboarding = dislocated hip, 1 month, went riding again and dislocated again. I don't snowboard anymore. Hip still hurts too often.

Broken jaw from casing a 7 put my knee into my jaw broke it in three places and had a piece of it coming through the bottom of my mouth. fucking sucked. 6 weeks with my jaw wired shut liquid only diet the whole time. 2 titanium plates in my jaw for life. had to use a stick to leaver my jaw open after it was unwired, so i couldnt even open my mouth an inch wide after it was unwired which sucked cause all you want to do is eat food. luckily i had braces otherwise i would have been picking up a shit load of teeth.

Dropped a cliff, took knee to face which gashed open my chin, and smashed my tooth. I got stitched up, and thought my tooth was ok.

2 weeks later my tooth splits in two. I had to get it pulled out, and still haven't got the filling in yet.
