So our buddy Eren busted himself up pretty good today at a local trail. He was throwin down off a nine foot drop to step-up to 8ft step down. Bottom line crashed pretty hard to theside of the landing and turned his wrist into the shape of a Z. Just wanted to say mad props for throwing the horns and healing vibes to the wrist.

Well thats all that really matters! Bones heal, but it gets kinda sketchy when you try to tig-weld your head-tube back on...

 

[vibiker]

...surgery went well no pins or screws or plates....

Sorry about your injury. Dumb question though. If the did not put in any hardware, what do they do when they cut you open?

 

[bent^biker]

can't upload pics dude sorry....vbiker...they set the bones, his wrist was litteraly in the shape of a z. i guess traction didn't work.

 

[Eren]

^^ exactly, and im workin on borrowing a cable for my razor to ppost the pic off it to my computer

 

[GrapeApe79]

Sorry about your wreck, Eren. I broke my wrist this same time last year riding, and it sucked, but really, there's no better time to break something. Its always best to go big at the end of the season. Besides, we've probably got a good 6-8 weeks before there's snow in the mountains anyway...time to rest and watch those mountain bike movies!

 

[Eren]

^^ yea man fer real.

ps im workin on gettin a cable to upload my pic
