I got acl surgery last september and sat out the whole szn
 
Only 20 because my body has been failing me once again. They were a very good 20 days though. Maybe healthy next year

ya man I am itching to do anything ski related like trampoline. I even bought some inline skates a few months ago in hopes I could use them this summer. Just had a 8mo post-op and my Dr. and he said I had to wait a full year to anything with pivoting, but should be good to ski after that... so basically I can't do anything other than gym for another 4 months...

I tore this acl early december 2023, on like my 6th day up that szn, and didn't get surgery til september 2023; then starts the 1 year heal process.

My advice for people is that if you yourself suspect an acl tear, don't wait to get screened by an actual orthopedic surgeon. Problem with mine is i got a false negative from my chiropractor and then I wasn't figuring it out that I tore it until a few months later. I had to get all the x-rays and MRI's etc (like 4 appointments) spread out over months as I have a busy schedule) in order to even get referred to an orthopedic specialist. It took the specialist about 3 seconds to check clinically that it was functionally a full tear -> and from then on it might take some time to get a surgery date.

Lucky for me, my school insurance covered the entire surgery, GA and all. Bless up for that!

retweet on going to an orthopedic surgeon. my general practitioner did the test where they pull on your knee and said it wasnt turn. she at least said to still get an mri and that showed it was torn. definitely against chiros and think physical therapy is the only real well to correct injuries
 
Hold on you are at the end !!! You will enjoy doing those activities more than before!! I would love to ski at 9mo with a brace... but I know that 3 months can reduce a lot the risk of retear (like 14% vs 4%).

I completly agree with you and dlonetti. Ortho visit after serious knee injury is a must.

I did my best to get repaired asap. MRI 14 days after injury, ortho visit 21 days after injury, surgery scheduled for 2 months after injury.

But hell I MISS SLUSH hah

12. Got two resort days the rest were the deepest backcountry days of my life. Alaska had the snow this winter. Wish I could have gotten out more!
 
12 days thanks to a summer injury and work... Thats the worst season for me in a decade, got some really good days though so not completely devastating. Currently training like a madman to make next season count, hit 405 on squat so I might knock the mountain over if I carve too hard. 2025 = Meaty Quad SZN
 
Only 16 with all the traveling. Wish I lived closer to snow. Thankfully have more than 16 booked at this point for next season. Let’s hope everything works out.
 
If I count being in ski boots for work, its gotta be clear over 90 at this point. I can't remember. This has been the most-weird but also most-fun season i've ever had.
