yeah dude. I have a spine disease called scheuermann's kyphosis (sort of like scoliosis but instead of a left to right curvature it is a front to back curvature, I dont want to go into details) and also have to wear a brace most of the day for it, 18 hours. it blows. Im not missing my ski season, but If i cant correct or slow the curvature I might need to get spinal fusion surgery and that would end my freeskiing for life... but ++vibes dude, I know it sucks but power through it. I know what I did is I got a camera and got into filming, and its good to take my mind off of things, maybe you should do the same or find something else to occupy yourself.
