aight, so i had to play in a soccer game today, where i hurt my wrist trying to save a pk. my wrist got compressed with the impact of the hard shot. it sucks typing with one hand. i have a trip to steamboat in 10 days. it really sucks, it didnt hurt too much at the begging, but it hurt worse and worse and now it hurts a lot. i have to see the doctor tom. it could be a sprain-prob a contusion, or hopefully not, a break. i never do this, but i ask the ns community to say a prayer for me tonight that ill be able to ski on the trip ive been waiting for since last year, nonrefundable $900 too. thanks.

at least its not a knee or something on your leg. you can still ski with a beat wrist, just maybe not like you want to. it could be a lot worse. good luck though.
 
i did that same thing last year.  it started out not hurting that much but then the pain built up a lot.  but the good news is it's not broken, it's just a bad sprain.  if it was broken it would have hurt a lot in the very beginning.  they gave me a wrist brace and i skied fine a couple days later.

 
hahhahaa hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

are you fucking serious? im not religous but if i was i would pray for the kid with cancer. not for some kid to go skiing on a 900 dollar trip to steamboat because he took a PK off his stump. fucccccccccccccccccccccccccccck
 
ye, i skied with a cast before on wrist, def no biggie. You can still enjoy yourself. Just need to chill out and dont do anything stupid
 
thanks that exactly what i thought. i know about skiing without poles and shit, but the doctor could tell me i cant go, then i cant go.

to the mormon comment. thats what i thought would happen on ns, you cant have any symapthy for anyone and you try to make me feel worse. thanks. im catholic, and i just asked for prayers thats not much to ask, thanks a lot for your help, i appreciate it.
 
Keep strong bro, my friend collin broke his wrist on an urban rail and was skiing a few days later. He just had some weird bag you could put over your cast so it woudnt get wet. He was still slaying rails like mad with a broken wrist. You will be fine to ski
 
umm. dont listen to the doctor. solves everything

i feel bad, hope you get better.

second of all, its a wrist, not an acl that requires a miracle to heal. i dont understand really how you are inhibited much at all with a hurt wrist beyond maybe the pole factor...
 
by compressed do you mean bruised? you'll be fine in 10 days brah.

also I rode almost an entire season with a cast on my wrist. took a couple runs to get used to but it was way easier to grab. if you cant find big enough mittens use an oven mitt.
 
comprssed as in the ball hit me hard in my wrist and compressed it, it is most likely a sprain. its up to the doctors and parents but im 19, so ill go anyways. thanks to yall who actually cared and gave me advice.
 
good luck buddy. I'm pulling for ya. If it comes down to it, maybe you can get the no-poles steeze going.
 
compressed what? the skin? the muscle? that is a bruise. compressed the bone? like fractured it? that is a broken wrist. somehow compressed ligaments sideways so that they stretched out of place? THAT is a sprain.

anways good luck hope you can ski.
 
dude i fucked my hand up last weekend and it hurt like a bitch later 2, it bruised all over even my palm( something ive never seen) and swelled up and it looked like fuckin professor klumps hand. threw a brace on it and went out the next day. no biggie ull be fine itll hurt everyonce in awhile but ull be fine. def not gonna ruin your trip. unless your a pussy
 
youre damn right im talking about you. there was some good stuff to be had, but you had to do the soccer thing, and now you'll be skiing when el nino finally wakes up...
 
screw what the doctor says, just get yourself a big glove! and i'm catholic too.. so yeah i'll pray for ya, not just cus of your religion, you could follow some weird sect for all i care but because i'd hate to be in the same situation
 
damn dude that sucks.

ice it and rest it and it sounds like it'll be fine.

and ill have some sympathy because that would suck if you couldnt go.

good luck
 
you'll be fine.

10 days to heal up, throw on a tensor bandage when your riding and you'll be money bags.

Just don't take any huge bails and torque your wrist.

I have skied with a broken finger with one of those stupid metal braces on so i couldn't grip my pole. Little Duct tape worked wonders, seen the same thing with people skiing with casts.

Just don't bail. You might not be able to rip to your fullest but your not gonna loose 900 bucks and sit on a couch.

Also don;t come back even more hurt and say to us we told you to.

 
That sucks brother. I just broke a bone in my left hand last night. Same thing as you, but we where goofing around so I didn't have my gloves on.
