Really? That's sad, I feel really sorry for you man.

I know I'd literally go insane if I found out I couldn't go snowboarding for the rest of the season!

Now I'm really glad I bought those Demon Soft-cap knee guards. I temporarily messed up my knee in a dirt bike crash over a year ago. All last season when snowboarding I had to wear a home-made soft cap knee pad on my right knee due to it becoming more sensitive to pain on impact than my other knee, which was fine. It's better now though, but this season I decided to buy a set of legitimate snowboarding knee pads anyway, which are much better. I've already taken a few hits in the park and have been fine!

Hope you get recover soon!

So, how exactly did you damage your knee?

I don't have a dirt bike or ride often. When I crashed it was at a friend's place who let me borrow the bike, and then me and another guy got into a bit of a race...
That was actually my first time and I haven't really done it since. Although I crashed, it was really fun and I'd like to try it again some time.

I got a small bit of revenge at the top though. He had all snowboarders pegged as a bunch of young punks and obviously thought he was landing verbal haymakers on me. So near the top of the lift I put up my goggles so he could see the gray hair and crowsfeet, and I just smiled at him. Didn't hear another word.

I get this alot when I ski. I feel like a double agent. Then I take a lunch break and switch to my board, and the SAME guy who was ranting about boards looked at me and just kept to himself on the lift. You could tell he was very confused because he could have SWORN he saw me on skis moments ago!

I have changed my sig based on a convo I overheard this morning where some blowhard was "educating" his friend on snowboarding lingo.

I couldn't say anything. I just couldn't. I was totally speechless.
