Default How do you fall?

Hey guys new to the forum and to snowboarding this season. i love it so far. the first times i went out obviously i fell constantly but now i don't fall very often, but when I DO fall they are pretty nasty because of the greater speed. What are your worst falls/injuries??

Earlier this season, somehow i ended up falling and nailing my head on some ice. I dont remember how it happened, or how I got down the hill, but I have two nice dents in my helmet now. Another time i was trying to catch up to some friends who were waiting on me at the lift and I got twisted up and fell, and the back of my binding went right up my crack and I legitimatly thought I was gonna poo myself.

ive rocked my knees a few times to the point they were so swollen. Ive had a couple tumbles but nothing that bad. My worst winter injury came way of a GTsnow racer about 12 years ago..

i've gotten pretty lucky so far, nothing too bad.. usually i have trouble landing jumps, cuz i can't land on the board flat (i always land on an edge) and usually fall forward and my knees hit the snow, hard!...haha

so far i can ride down any slope without falling though, i usually only fall while trying to do a jump, or something stupid...haha
