It's confirmed that Russ Henshaw had no ACLs at all when he made finals in the Olympics. He's just updated his blog

http://russhenshaw.com/2014/03/long-time-no-blog/

He had both knees reconstructed on the same day. Has anyone else done that apart from Tanner?

Honestly I have no clue how that is possible at all, I've blew my ACL out earlier this season and I can't ski. My knee is all over the place.

When my dad tore his right ACL he didn't realize for months and kept skiing and skimboarding on it. The rest of his knee was strong enough to compensate stability-wise so they initially assumed it was just meniscus damage. His surgeon decided that since it was working fine without an ACL they wouldn't bother repairing it and instead just went in to clean up some of the loose ends. They also suspect he has no ACL in his left knee because there is a lot of travel in it when they do certain manipulations - if that is the case it has probably been gone for a couple decades because he hasn't injured that knee in a long time.

Yup I skiied for 2 seasons with no acl (before I got surgery) and finished this one with a partially torn one in my other knee. The key is to not have a chronic condition known as ns kid chicken leg syndrome.

how the hell do you rehab that? I'm 6 weeks out of my surgery and most of my exercises heavily involve the healthy leg. That must be a damn long recovery although I guess it beats staggering them
