Any one here get a bad injury during the last days of your season? Yesterday (the day before my mountain closes) I over shot the hell out of a jump and my ski didn't eject. Twisted my ankle and fucked my growth plate and muscles. Anyways, post your last minute injuries.

looks painful!! ahhhh i hate mouth injuries.

Mine isnt really a last minute injury... i messed up my knee back in January when i was working on loops and finally went to the doc on thursday (because it was getting worse every time i would re-tweak it skiing or working out) and she assigned me to 3wks of PT and if it doesn't get a whole lot better i will be in the operating room.. yay.. NOT! Keep your fingers crossed for me that i wont need surgery : /

Did you get an MRI? thats odd they're just doing PT before deciding if you need surgery, they should be able to figure that out easily...

A tree jumped out in front of me and I banged my shin up pretty good.  Twice its normal size and turning purple and blue, really hard to get a boot on right now, but should be ready to go on my trip to Jackson on Wednesday though

Dealing with a possible knee injury.
Ran into a tree two weeks ago after my ski detached when I hit a bump.
Knee had swelling and was diagnosed as a hamstring strain. I think its something more so I'm going to the doctor (orthopedic) tomorrow morning for x-rays and further examination. Can still ski on it though.

I broke my arm a month back in February, caught my edge on a box and just happened to land badly. I got surgery and had two 6 inch pins put in my arm that I just got out Friday, hurt like a bitch, but luckily we seem to be having one of our longest seasons in a long time, going to the hill tomorrow just to cruise and film, then going to a mountain to ski pow later this week.

The average person doesn't need some of those things in their knees to work well to go about their lives, and so doctors will recommend PT. If you don't go to a sports specific ortho that truly understands your lifestyle, you won't be getting it straight - so I would make sure your doctor knows what sort of sports you do and really knows his shit from a sports standpoint before waisting any more time with PT if you are going to need surgery!

Hey thanks! I really appreciate the advice.. I will definitely look into finding a good ortho that is sports specific.. unfortunately i don't live in a large city and we don't have the best doctors here.. so maybe that means ill need to check into going somewhere else! Thanks again.
