What is your worst injury ever

What is your worst injury you have ever sustained while riding, and the story that goes with it, i'll start

Worst injury i got is when i first started doing park, i at 15 footer at camel back in PA and at the lip of the jump their was a long log that i didn't notice, board caught the log and threw me in the the air completely horizontal with the rolling down the window arm motion, landed directly on my face and bottom tooth tooth on the right side to the left of the canines came out of the mouth and through the lip onto the snow as well as cutting that little piece of skin that holds your lip to your jaw

Now im a black dude with big lips ok....

So i have this massive hanging lip with blood EVERYWHERE and a tooth in my best friends hand, ski patrol comes down and try to get me on the little cart thing and i saw im good i'll just follow you to the lodge, on the way thier i hit a couple more jumps..and fell again... anyway get back to the lodge and they shove the tooth back in my mouth with no anesthetic at all, this was one BIG %*#(*%# tooth, bout an inch and half replaced into my jaw, loosing a lot of blood and they say i need 2 go 2 the hospital, pack it all up and we were heading back to a jersey *home town* hospital, meanwhile my friends stopped off at McD's for some food as im loosing massive amounts of blood in the back and get into an argument over fruit punch and fruitopia. all in all when to the hospital and got about 40 stitches to make me look pseudo normal again, lip still hangs a little more than usual but no one notices

I was there for that... **** was sick

pretty knarly bruised tailbone

Did a huge jump on my recent snowtrip. Did a big jump way out of my league and went straight up (froze in mid air, didnt expect to get that much air and forgot to pop and balance the back end) paid the price landed on my board (tail end) which broke the fall and on my back/butt. Real lucky I walked away ok...

Worst was the year before bruised tailbone which took nearly 2 months to recover. Somehow not as spectacular as my first description.

Just screwed my thumb this weekend.

Probably going to need to see a hand surgeon depending on how it goes.

Hit a jump in the park with WAY too much speed and cleared the landing.

Stacked and screwed my thumb in the process.

I got knocked out for a a couple of seconds when I went sideways of a jump and landed on my head, on some ice.  Been wearing a helmet ever since.

ima just add one more i guess, when i went to Mount Snow fastest i've ever booked it down one trail, caught an edge, popped me into the air, did three cartwheels, *IN THE AIR* landed on my head, popped back up ito the air, one more cartwheel, and the landing went as such

Head, feet, head, feet, head, feet, body roll, i was out for couple seconds and all my head gear was gone, but my goggles stayed on

another grand concussion

broken clavicle (collar bone). the worst part is that i wasn't doing anything crazy, just cruising down a groomer at a small, local mountain. it was the first run of the day, early in the morn, hard-pack, and i hit a bad patch of snow/ice. F#@% HARD PACK!

In 2000, I was doing a slopestyle comp at Meadows at Hood and also bit my tongue in half...had to have stitches to sew my tongue back together.  Mouth guard was worn after that.

Dude story of my life, mountain creek in NJ is all ice, all lot of us call us the best riders cuz we never fall, strictly due to extreme risk and injury that usually comes with it

Last season i can honestly say that only 3 times of the the 25+ times i went it wasn't hard packed ice : /

Oh my god, I was cruising one day on Mammoth and suddenly caught the edge and fell on my butt and bit my tongue too but nothing like yours, just a little blood so I was thinking of wearing a mouth guard too.

worst injury for me was when i clipped a rock on a trail at stowe, totally threw me and i think i hit a rock or something. Ended up ripping my brand new jacket, my underarmor long sleeve and splitting my elbow open. Didn't end the day, but i was a little sour about the jacket.

DAAAAMn.  Was it hanging by a thread or did you have to scoop it off the ground?

My wost wipeout was when I hit a snow maker witch made me front flip which made me lose my pants and my feet came half-way out of my boots.

while boarding, the first trip i started hitting jumps i hit one that was way too big for me. got about 8 feet of air and landed on my ass. knocked my helmet and my goggles off. when i turned to look back at the jump, i see another dude do the same exact thing. so were both just laying there for a good couple minutes.

and then in april, i was playing some basketball and went up for a dunk. i hung on the rim and felt my shoulder pull out. i tore my labrum... i got surgery and im out for six months. its horrible.

My tongue was hangin by the outside corners...super gnar.  I about passed out...and all of my friends that were rep's at the time, were just shooting pics right and left..and it was horrible.

Fractured my ribs was just as bad as I've ever injured myself. Was at the snow yesterday and my friend collided with someone.. the guy checked his leg and there was a huge gash - blood everywhere probably needed 5-6 stitches

Caught an edge and smashed my head into an ice mogul that broke my helmet in 3 or more places. Bruised my tailbone and it hurt for 2 months. Sprained my wrist so bad I had to be brought down in a stretcher cuz I was in so much pain. Caught another edge on groomed ice and landed on my face leaving a trail of blood down the whole slope. Doing probably about 60m.p.h. to get over a flat to go back to Ramshead lodge at Killington and ate shie and messed up my back for a while. Took a tree to the chest.

Can't think of much more.

fractured rib...

So mine was about 3 seasons ago now, 05-06 season, in Northstar's park. I was riding on the last day of the season, which if memory serves, was 4-20-06. I got to the hill pretty early to ride the sloppy, sun baked park before heading to work in the afternoon. I was doing laps with a young lady that I had an interest in at the time, so I was obviously trying to impress her. Well, stupid me, I go to ollie the flat part of the flat to down box and catch a rut. This basically tossed me front leg, my left leg being that I'm regular, directly into the immovable object that was the box. I hit it so hard it spun me around a full 360 degrees and flipped me over so I landed face down on my stomach.

I immediately knew something was wrong. The park is situated directly under the Vista chair and some of my friends saw the whole horrible incident unfold and notified Ski Patrol. They showed up promptly and the patroller did an incident assessment, which basically involved me putting myself in awkward positions including dropping my pants, on the hill, in front of everyone in the immediate vicinity as well as everyone riding the lift. So after the uncomfortable ride down in the sled, we got to the on-hill Med Center and they took X-Rays. Come to find out that I had a very badly broken Femur. I took the ambulance to the hospital in Truckee. They got me into surgery very quickly and I ended up with one large screw in the ball of the femur where it goes into the hip, 2 screws going into the femur just above the knee and a rod connecting the two. All of this hardware is still in my leg to this day.

Moral of the story, be careful trying to impress girls with your snowboarding "prowess." Peace!
