arai 0 #1 June 16, 2007 well I always thought my first broken bone/mishap would come skydiving. but yesterday while doing some downhill mountain biking I managed to take my ankle and turn it 90 degrees sideways (pretty fun crawling out of the trails, then having to wait in emergency.) After a dose of morphine and a doctor wrentching it for all he was worth to put it back into place, they took some x-rays and were amazed to see a dislocation without a break of the ankle. (apparantly they were expecting "count the pieces" for my ankle) now, a broken bone might only take 6-8 weeks to heal, but a torn up ankle they say will take me 3 months to get back to normal because of the ligament damage. Anyway.... june, july, august.... umm that still leaves me safe for flock and dock 3.5 right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottGray 0 #2 June 16, 2007 Very sorry to hear that. When I blew out my ACL and distroted my knee, it took 18 months to return to skydiving. BIG HINT - stick to the physical therapy !!!!
