cocheese 0 #7 June 26, 2004 i think we can count broken wallets if it's really serious :)Man i feel sorry for the people who have to work weekends/ or can't jump for long periods of time. I've rarely been "uncurrent" in the last 7 years or barely went a whole month w/o jumping. Guess i was on a good luck streak. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I usually get stuck working saturdays but that keeps me from having the broke wallet and lets me jump sundays. Greenie in training. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yo Psycho! I still don't know - I'm hopin' I can make it but who knows. I go back for more x-rays on July 22nd and then I'll find out what the deal is. They said if the upper portion of my Tibia hasn't closed up they'll take out the hardware and give me a bone graft Just what I always wanted. One more graft to add to my collection Apparently, I got the bonus plan on this one I'm still hopin' though - maybe we can get in some more jumps like this Be Cool, Z Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BASE813 0 #22 June 27, 2004 hey dude!! some sort of 3 legged race type landing on a tandem we could do!

BASE813 0 #23 June 27, 2004 one thing I have found out since being injured is that although I realise injuries happen I could not beleive just how often they happen! Also a fucked up situation is that a further 3 of my friends (friends = people I jump with and spend social time with) all bust themselves up. Thats 4 of us bust up all within a 6 week stint! Fucking crazy! Bad juju! the reaper is out there this summer....Be safe out there.............. recovery time is long, boring, frustrating and painful.......

cocheese 0 #25 June 27, 2004 Cloud_monkey, You have some awesome pics. The Gallery is great. The clarity and colors WOW. Anyway, this thread is helping the healing because I'm glad I'm not some of you guys :) Maybe HH could start an injured list forum. It would be our "BREAKfast Club" support group.I think we should also add cause of injury. It might make some people think twice about what they are doing next.
