 Poster: A snowHead
|
planeurge, great story - thanks for sharing. On the vertebra point, i have the same injury with wedge compressions of T8 and T9 (from a rock climbing accident last year). I am now 6 months post injury but i did manage to go snowboarding about 12 weeks post injury, and again at 4 months, and most recently at 5 months post injury. I was a bit worried i might have to give it up, but i've managed not too badly. It was a bit stiff on the first trip, but quite manageable in the more recent trips. I'd say i'm probably about 70% recovered, and i'd hope for a bit more before the full year is out.
I'm sure your orthopod has given you sound advice. For me the physio made such a difference. I go every week, and i'll probably keep this up in the medium to long term.
Good luck with your recovery.

pam w, indeed. I was actually requested to remove my post altogether but tbh, I'm uncomfortable with the censorship.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Yes - and as the whole thing is in the public domain, it's fairly pointless.

marksavoie, interesting article. I think he's on a bit of a hiding to nothing if he thinks people are going to go back to waiting 2-3 days after snowfall to ski a lot of things though.

You might want to reasses your perception of snowHeads range of resorts....I'm rather fond of your place planeurge, and given its well known attraction that norris points out I really do think that for Dypcdiver's reasoning alone you should ski equiped with bleeper, probe and shovel.
That being said I would be thinking "phew!" and counting my blessings.
