I was riding down in Mammoth last week and got my bike blown out from under me over a jump on a new trail called chainsmoke. If you've been to mammoth you understand the wind situation. I'm an idiot for even continuing to hit them after mid day. Anyway I came down on my ankle from probably about head high and look at all the neat colors it's turning. Oooh purty. Two broken foot bones (with tendons attached to the free floating pieces) and a mean sprain are the result.

Notice the wierd crap that seems to be chasing up the blood vessels in the shot from the top.

If you go to mammoth, please roll the first few jumps on chainsmoke before you jump them. They are built poorly with the last jump being about 20% the size of the previous 3, all of which you will accelerate from if you hit the landings properly. I got knocked because of the wind but the last jump is dangerous regardless.

Sweet colors!

Heal quick.. Sorry to hear about the crash!

 

[dexterq20]

Hmmm... no sir, I don't like it. Not one little bit.

Get healthy soon!

 

[kidwoo]

Thanks guys. So far it's like every morning I wake up, someone has gone over my foot with a purple marker in new and exciting places. I'm going to see if I can get checkerboard patterns soon here.

you HAVE gone to a doctor, haven't you?

 

[kidwoo]

you HAVE gone to a doctor, haven't you?

What like.........lately or like....ever?

Yeah that's how I know it's broken, I seen them bone pictures, mine even. You and I should trade color swatches of bruise hues. You'd win but it would give us something to do at least.

Ooohhhh look at all the pretty colours

da nm right I'd win! I'm a winner! I'm awesome... wait a minute, winning this game sucks. I'm gonna go cry.

 

[SirChomps-a-Lot]

well, here's my bruise for color comparison... looks like yours is purpler...

 

[binary visions]

I think you guys should be keeping track of these colors carefully and submit them to Home Depot as a new color line.

I'm thinking of painting my living room this shade of purple.

I didn't just hear that. You say something?

la la la lalalalal la la la can't wait to ride la la la la la .................


ps: I looked around last night for a discussion where you mentioned what kind of ankle support you use these days. What was it? I've got a 661 coming in the mail.

 

[dfinn]

those rumors i heard weren't true, you have purdy feet.

so i guess you won't be riding this week. how long will it be anyways? does it hurt too much to go out and paddle around? I picked up my boats on friday.

Sweet. I doubt I can do much this week. Everytime I drop my foot below about waist level it turns into a water balloon and makes neat colors. I'll let you know by the end of the week. Go paddle towards the point by Crystal Bay from King's Beach. There are some cool granite boulders in the water you can mess around in. Sirens hang out there midday working on their melanoma.

I use a Mc David Lace up brace. Its black and comes up really high on your ankle. It works well.

Cool. That's what I saw in one of the pharmacies here. It's about twice the price of the 661 but probably worth it. I'll probably be using that instead of a cast for a while. Thanks.
