No big deal. Not like I'm at risk of falling on ice again this season.

yeah, i know some kid who was doing a season in the same resort as me who fell on his neck while riding. he went to the doctors got x-rays and they said it was ok. he kept riding for a few more weeks then went home and had an MRI scan because his neck still felt sore. the MRI showed he broke his fucking neck. the moral of the story: an MRI is better (and more expensive) than an x-ray. and get health insurance.

Hope your healing..
Not to veer from your injury but what is a "gateway box"

Super late response, sorrys

A gateway box is basically a box that looks like this
___
/ \

crappy drawing but hopefully you get the idea haha

Thanks, it's healed fine now.
Only problem is when I workout, it starts cracking ever time I bent my knees.
I don't know if it came from my injury but it's sort of annoying to hear cracks after ever rep of whatever I do :\

wow that picture did not come out how it's supposed to.
Let me explain haha

It's just a three-part box.
First part is that it inclines upwards
Second is just a flat surface
Third is basically just a downbox

crzy -
Is the noise you hear a 'cracking' or more like a 'popping' sound? If popping you should get more than a x-ray, more like a MRI that could show a cartlidge tear or other problem.
Best of luck -
