Just came back from ER this am with a "hairline fracture " and a chip from the ULNAR . It's the same wrist i had broken in 5 spots nine years ago and was due to a stupid decision by a good skier dammit
I was skiing some steeps and took a header @ speed in some iced stuff off the reg connector trail yesterday . I had missed the normal short cut connector trail thru the woods to the lifts from the steep i was skiing and had gone 10 -20 yds below it ----------so instead of stopping and just climbing back to the reg trail i cut back @ speed thru some really gnarly and deep iced up crud in the woods that looked soft but was n't .
The skis hit that crap at speed and i went flying out over the front. I threw my poles , came out of the bindings, flew LIKE HERMANNN MAIER thru the air and stupidly tried to cushion my fall .
It happened on first run of the day but we skied till 3:15 --Hell it was blubird day and only a wimp would have quit .
The ski patrol thought it was a bad sprain since i could shake hands and do a hand to hand pressure manuver ---- or a possible hairline fracture so they braced me with ace bdg and we continued to rip . WE went out to dinner last nite i slept comfortably but it ws still slightly swollen so i drove myself to ER this am.
It could have been much worse----just pisses me off cuz it was a bad decision and avoidable . But hey i've now got an excuse on the golf course this yR and BTW i intend to back up on the boards this season .
The guitars are also gonna get a rest for a while
Just call me
AIR Daddy now
