Can you name a pro that has never had a serious ski injury? assuming they are over 21, and have been sponsored for a few years, I cant think of anyone. It seems these days you have to injure yourself to progress.
 
Twall broke a bone in his shoulder a while back. Other then that I can't think of any major injuries he had. Lucky dude, considering how he throws down.
 
This was my first thought. For as much as he progressed the sport a few years back, it's crazy that he's never blown a knee or been out for a long time. I think it's because he really takes the pressure off himself. In all the videos I've seen, I've noticed he has a tendency to back off stuff when it gets even a little bit gnarly or he isn't feeling it.
 
yeah. i'd say he's just careful, and never exceeds his ability level.

...lol thats because its impossible to exceed his ability level!!!
 
He is also in amazing shape and takes his training in the gym very seriously. I guess Jon is really one of the only ones, depending if u count the meniscus surgery. Wallisch and Wesson have both broken bones i believe.
 
i believe he broke it while jumping from switch to forward on flat ground too. or maybe the other way around. pretty dumb way to break a collarbone
 
broke his collar bone twice, but besides that.. not really anything. Lets admit hes too good for a serious injury, right?
