that guys a freak. I’ve not ridden trails since the end of July. Crashed at Silver Star and effed up my finger. Mallet finger…
Seems to be in the mend now. Getting back into shape is going to hurt…

Damn that sucks!

I had to look up what Mallet Finger was. Now I'm a little nauseous. Gross. And I've had plenty of hand traumas due to crashing on mtb's. Ask my ortho doc. He'd be like "It's fine, I'd let you play football tomorrow." Freaking jerk

Imagine a black sea urchin with 10" spikes , looks like a spikey basket ball.

Isn't that exactly what a sea urchin looks like?

And no shit, there are fish that can swim into your dick in the water. Stay away from that shit!

Yes but when they are 10" spikes per side and look like the size of a basketball it's alot more massive than any urchin I've seen. I've held hundreds but none are poisonous...yeah the dick swimming fish I'll pass lol..

Were there any warning signs, like giant spikes or something?

yeah, it was weird. I rode another couple hours without noticing. Took my glove off and couldn’t get it straight. Felt like a quivering little wuss immediately thereafter. That feeling is still subsiding….

3 months of splinting, but no surgery!

[Nick]

Was it a surgical fix?

To be fair, I did step on a stingray. Hurt like a mofo and I could feel the poison working it's way up my leg.

I heard it stings like a sob.....
Thankfully I've not been stung by one yet...I have put my big ass foot down and squished em against sand (several times)...could feel em squirming under my size 14 and with my weight they were trapped lmao...

Speaking of skiing...My buddy and I are taking our kids to the newest Warren Miller movie tonight. Haven't been in like 10 years. Looking forward to getting the kids on the stoke train for ski season like we did back in the day!

wild. had no idea what said mallet finger was; turns out i have one! messed up my pinky years ago on a dirtjump gone wrong. wasn't broken & didn't want to mess with a splint at the time, and it ended up healing with a wonky permakink at the tip. functions fine though. *shrug*

Initially, I couldn’t extend the end of my finger at all. It was just floppy. The tendon seems to have healed almost entirely. At the expense of my gut and 3 months of riding…

This is well worth the 7 minutes

Cool video!
They also pretty much all had wide bars even by today's standard.
