We used to call it "eating shit" when we spilled skateboarding.
Ex. "Did you see Tommy hit that rock? He ate shit hard!"
Synonym: AWW FUCK

I call it an MCL Tear.

Which is what I did at Jay Peak yesterday around 10:00 am.

I was skiing the bumps under the chair on the Jet. I hit a bump that was all powder, my ski went straight into the fluff and stopped. I didn't. Felt the pop. Getting an MRI in the next couple days.

I've been using "biffed it" lately.

I like the ones that describe the type of crash, like "Scorpioned" (when your legs get bent backward up over your head).
