GET THE SURGERY. Do you realize that if you fuck it up even more you run the risk of never being able to ride again?

DO NOT do this. I had a friend who tried against doc's advice and ended up making it worse than it could have been. incredibly dumb. just get it fixed up dude.

Get it fixed bro!
Unfortunately its the worst rehab since you can't do anything for about 6 months. However, its well worth it when it's repaired.
Warning! After the surgery you are never the same. I am always in pain! Boarding is very challenging... the bending the knees part and landing. Then again, I am 36.
Good luck!
