Alex_G Active member Sep 21, 2008 #14 his jumps are perfectly built though so even though they are huge you can still ski away from a fall without injury a lot of the time.

C-Burg Active member Sep 21, 2008 #15 meniscus isnt that bad, all it is is arthoscopic so he could get back in time.
no_steeze Active member Sep 21, 2008 #16 meniscus isn't bad, it's like a 2 week max recovery time, most people walk out of the hospital after surgery

E eshc Member Sep 21, 2008 #17 getting it cut out is a fairly quick recovery. getting it repaired is more like 4 months.
DaveM Active member Sep 21, 2008 #20 very true. but lets say you didnt get your speeds right for a jump like the JOI jump and case it hard.. i would sau that you can get easily injured

PopsicleStand Active member Sep 21, 2008 #23 yeah i agree however on a big jump you have to agree the tolerances are tighter. wrong move, or wrong speed and you can still get hurt badly.
