he broke the non-weight supporting bone in his ankle and didnt even realize it until 3 months after it happened, he's been riding and playing soccer on it since, he'll be out for 6 weeks, might be able to ride in 4 if he's lucky, wish him a speedy recovery

Suck... I know how that feels, I broke my tibia/fibula down low like that a while ago and I'm all held together by screws and plates. How'd he break it?
Keep it elevated, enjoy the pain killers, and play tons of video games  _________________ -Paul |

hmm, he has the same reaction as I do whenever anyone tries to take a picture of me.
So what was the exact procedure?
Good luck with your recovery, capguntragedy... _________________ *The opinions expressed are on my behalf and not those of wakeskating.com* |

i think the bone he broke was the tibia, could be wrong though, the x ray looked something close to this

bobby211, haha thats exactly what it looked like!
-=AlexXx=-, i gave the doc my camera and told him to take some pics.. i didnt think they were gunna be that nuts. haha
electricsnow, the tibia was completely snaped in half so originaly they where going to give me a bone marrow graph and complete it with a plate and screws, but they cut it open and realized i tore the ligament holding the tibia and fibula together or sumthing and had to put aother screw holding it together, it all it sucks.
but they gave me vikadin like it was candy, im not complaining. lol |
