no helmet.

to be honest, it all happened too fast, yes it was kicker, no sure how big (it was dark and I was hauling ass, very very stupid).

time frame depends on the surgery thing.

4 to 6 weeks.

which kicker ? in the top park the kickers are 15 25 and 25 and the one in the bottom park is 35 but it puts you waaaay high lol im gonna guess this one was the one hehe. Wrist injuries suck but i guess its better than the broken ankle/leg my girl is currently rolling with at least. get better!

i think it was more of a natural made ramp, it was towards the bottom, for sure not the 35 one. I am not stable in the air lol, hint my fractures lol.

I had a similar situation in Mont Treblant. Me and some friends went on a 5 day and I broke my wrist in 2 places on the first run on the first day. I as well was relegated to drinking all day while they were having fun

I feel for ya. Get well

ouch dude ... i feel your pain! i did the same thing on my big trip this year to CO at the end of the first day (not quite as bad though - i only have two fractures and they're both in my left wrist). at least you have a cool story ... i just got tired & lazy and caught an edge while flat boarding on a catwalk.

a 400 yard sled ride, on-the-hill urgent care visit, scaring the crap out of some kid getting on the lift (i wasn't moving and had my board strapped on top of me - pretty sure he thought i was dead

), lots of beer, two sets of x-rays, two orthopedist visits, an mri, two splints and a sling, one cast, and about three hundred bucks later i'm ... feeling fabulous!

ps. invest in the shower sleeve thing they sell at your local drugstore. it beats the hell out of trying to plastic bag it!
