Not to start a flame...but after you ran into the third or fourth person, don't you think that might have been fate giving you a clue to go hit the cruisers?

Good Luck with the knee however

in hindsight I guess you're right

Sorry to read about your knee injury. Your report got my toes to curl up, ouch. I hope you are feeling better soon and make a full recovery.

Well, like I said, not trying to start a flame or anything

I am suprised about the volume of traffic though

I hope knee gives a medical report, and what they say the treatment should be

sucks to hear that.


I got hooked up behind a snowmobile after i tore my first acl. also on a bump run. I think ended up with a mild concussion from smacking my head against the sled and possible c02 poisoning from sucking in the fumes from the snowmobile.

good luck and if there is ANY silver lining to it, at least it happened in possibly the worst season ever. so its not like you're missing too much. not that that is any consolation.

Good luck man. One of my bosses here tore her knee out last season and she's skied on it this season, tore it out pretty badly from what I understand, but she's mended and able to ski. Keep your tips and your chin up.

Knees fix good though


It is true though! they fix a hell of a lot better then shoulders.... stupid stupid shoulders. once you dislocate one of those guys you have a 70% chance of doing it again...and your chances increase the more you do it. trust me...i know

<--- falling asleep at work because he had rehab for his shoulder at 6am in the morning

Best wishes, and a fast and healthy recovery. Had a similar accident in Sugarbush last year when my ski got caught between bumps. Ended up with a 29 stitch cut from my ski but its amazing how quickly a twisting fall happens.

Here's hopin' its a really bad sprain...

Yikers....is that normal to wait THAT long? Did he at least see you before telling you that?
