My first run on the second time out last season I caught the nose in some pow and tore my meniscus. I was done for rest of the season. I'm about to head out again tomorrow for the first time since.

I haven't done anything too bad, but once last year I came off a kicker and landed funny and ended up knocking myself out for a minute. (I had a helmet on too) Sucky part about alaska snow, its mostly ice after awhile. =p

I've been pretty fortunate, my worst injury involved a ski lift, extreme amounts of embarassment, 5 stitches in my lip and a trip to the dentist to fix my broken tooth.

Basically it sucked because 1. it was stupid, 2. I got asked about it 3,000,000,000 times and 3. I couldn't play my Tuba for a month which sucked because I almost missed All-State, yeah I'm a band geek, but I still got to play.

I've been injury free since then. woo!

I hate it when kids fall at the lifts and then they have to slow it down for everyone...

Gots to be the three ribs I broke at Big Sky in Montana. We thought we were cool trying to make some quarterpipes... anyhoo hit the "quarterpipe" and went off at an angle into a branch right across the chest. Thought I was a gonna passed out from the pain twice. Since then couple bruised/sprained wrists. *knock on wood* (not that type of wood).

My worst was probably when I broke my wrist when I was learning how to do frontside 3's. I came up right side of a tranny on this jump and I guess leaned a little to far back because shortly after leaving the side of the tranny Iwas upside down about 7 or 8 feet in the air and then came down with my left hand out. So when I landed all my weight and force was applied to that one hand and it snapped. I was lucky wasn't a compound fracture., it was close to being that way just a little more force and it would have been cause it was headed in the right direction to do so.

A minor headache, or possibly the sore shin I got on my first box I ever tried. I'm sure it's going to get a lot worse than that though, oh well, small price to pay for this much enjoyment.

I havn't had any breaks but I once gave myself a black eye in half pipe. While landing and comming down the side I hit a huge chunk of ice and slipped out, fell into the wall and my goggles got pushed into my eye and thats how it happened.
