Early media reports is that she broke her right tibula and possibly also fibula (your lower leg bones) just above her boot top
You can kind of see her leg buckle at the boot top level in slo-mo
Hope she's ok and heals well with the Sochi games starting about a year from now

You all beat me to it. Hope it's not more than an ACL.

I watched in slo mo and I don't see the boot top fracture as the injury. It looks like the right knee buckles in. It looks like a MCL and ACL tear to me.

That was painful to watch, let alone experience. Hope she can recover in time to race next season.

Ouch, saw it on the news, could hear her screaming. Hope for a speedy recovery with the Olympics around the corner.
