garcia_vega Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 i was reading that skaters unite post and it got me thinking about all my slams. my worst slam was trying to grind a 7 stair rail and it stuck. i landed on my face and broke my cheekbone. i kept spitting blood for 2 days so i went to the hospital and they said they might need to wire my skull back together, but i just never went back to the hospital after they said that.

garcia_vega Posted July 19, 2001 Author Share Posted July 19, 2001 o yea, i also split my entire shin open from like 3 inches above my foot to right below my knee. that took a lot of stitches. also trying to grind a rail. i just don't try to grind rails anymore.

deznatori Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 First time I met Tony Hawk I was doing backside smiths on this thigh high ledge and got a 3rd degree sprain in my ankle. Worst fall...I was rockin' pop shuvits down the 8 stairs infront of our middle school. well I landed it and my back foot was a little too off the board. Caught a toe on the ground and did the splits. Turned out I tore my MCL and strained all the other ligaments (ACL, Patella tendon, and the other minor ones) in one knee. Strained my MCL and Patella tendons in the other. This all 2 days before graduation. So now I have arthritis in my knee, lost about 4 and a half inches in vertical leap, and because of all the other ankle injuries I have arthritis in them too.

-Rage- Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 I already wrote this in third rail, but here it is again: Last September I was boarding downtown and when I went to ollie a gap...Smack! I hit a small rock which stopped my board dead. Too bad I kept going. The first thing that hit the cement wa my left knee, followed by my left elbow and hand. I got up and felt fine; picked up my board. After walking a few steps my left knee was hurting. Somehow I got a freind to take me to the hospital and I ended up with a fractured patella. I was on crutches for 2 months and I couldn't paint. Life's a bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harpo Marx Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 I've been lucky for the most part with my share of falls. The worst was when I strained my wrist (again it's not a big deal) I was going back down a quarter pipe blindly and my board stopped and i fell back and landed on my wrist.

alkaline Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 I did almost the same thing that -Rage- did, except when I landed, I was on my feet. I lost my balance and hyperextended my right knee. About a month after that, I fell down some stairs helping a friend move, and I twisted the same knee. That was about six months ago. I actually went skating the other day for the first time since I got hurt. My knee is still sore. -Al Not waving, but drowning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacman Posted July 19, 2001 Share Posted July 19, 2001 30-35 holding onto a car. Lost it, concussion chin stiches, still gotta bump on my forehead, nasty looking hand and side, cool scars though. I've never felt the same since falling. I had a black eye from an inch above my eye to even with close to the bottom of my nose. Rolling ankles sucks. I still need to skate more. ------------------ <- - - -(")- -(")owoop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royal9001 Posted July 20, 2001 Share Posted July 20, 2001 my worst was when i was attempting to do a noseslide, and i got going way to fast to do it, so i just jumped off the back of my skate. it broke my tibia, or the smaller of your leg bones. now i don't get to skate until 1 week before school starts. this displeases me greatly. http://www.12ozprophet.com/ubb//frown.gif'> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hipnos Posted July 20, 2001 Share Posted July 20, 2001 my friend and i were skating, and he tried to pop his board up with his foot to grab it and carry it, but he was trying to do it by popping the nose, not the tail, and the board popped up between his legs and hit him in the nuts. he was on the ground for five or ten minutes, it was one of the funniest things i've ever seen, and at the same time i felt a little bad for him.

Guest imported_SecretAgentX9 Posted July 20, 2001 Share Posted July 20, 2001 damn, handrail + nuts = emergency room. plus one month of limping, purple nuts, and several visits to a specialist... that was pain. not to mention broken bones (too many to mention).

Guest kidlugz Posted July 20, 2001 Share Posted July 20, 2001 i was a pussy when i used to skate. if it was more than 8 steps, i wasn't doing it. i like to stay close to the ground. my friend however, broke his wrist one time while skating this indoor park owned by toronto skate G's. his bone popped right through his skin...it was gnarly to say the least. we had to sneak out cuz he didn't want the g's to know he fucked himself up in their uninsured park.
