Did it January 3rd, but finally went in to the doctor's yesterday to get it X-Rayed. Good news is that it doesn't affect my season at all, really. Then, today, I went and got my tibia chipped, so I'm sitting here with 2 partially broken bones and neither affect my season. How lucky.

Yep, you are lucky. On killingzone we have had several knee injuries - one that just occurred today. They all sound pretty serious but two of the skiers have yet to get to the doctor to get it diagnosed. I think they are afraid to find out that it might be a season ending injury.

Glad your alright. My son has been hanging out with a broken shoulder. This is not a good one. I hope everyone get better for the rest of the season.

Update: The one that was injured yesterday found out today that she has a season ending injury - a torn ACL (Grade 3). She had already skied 32 days though so you could say she skied as much as some of us ski all season.

Damn, and I thought me missing the next week was bad. Actually, the doctor never said anything to me about not skiing, but the chipped tibia hurts so much when touched, I can't even put a sock over it. Never mind a ski boot.

I am side lined (sort of) with my foot. Some days it is great and I can ski and get my boot on fine and other days, though my boot goes on, I can not stand when it is on. It is a flair-up of an injury I got over the summer though
