Other Injuries Due to Riding a Stand Up..

Tried to jump my standup into the back of my truck a month ago. Didn't time it right , the bow eye cought the tail gate and slammed it shut. Ski is now completely vertical, in a effort to save the the nozzle and trim my right foot got caught under the back tray edge. I have long ride plate that took most the damage. But the foot damn near had a hole the size of a nickel through it. Felt no pain at the time, took about a month heal.

I hope as you typed this you became aware of the myriad of bad decisions you made in a short amount of time...

Damn dude. Sometimes me should of shot a video of that bad decision followed by more bad decisions.
 
No those came just after the incident on the ride home trying to figure a way to hide it from the wife. Which was successful, she now thinks that wart removal requires a surgical wrap afterwards. Beleive me when you show up to ride with your buddies and you have a makeshift crash pad under the ski already, they are more than happy to give out words of wisdom. I just decided to substitute my reality as to how safe it would be to end each riding session in that manner. This was like the fifth time.
 
Split my leg open while carving hard on my x2 years back. "Oh I can see your bone!" Is not something you want to hear from your friend circling you on his ski while youre floating in a scuzzy lake holding your leg closed.

I have never injured myself further than a bruise in the decade I've been riding. Well today I landed terrible and came out of the footholds and my legs hit the bars. I've got a video of it too, lol. My leg swelled up a bit. 20240912_202459.jpg20240912_202504.jpg
 
I got clipped by the nozzle a month ago unloading before I had my wetsuit and knee sleeves on. Left the skis at miller and went home to sew it up. All good and riding in an hour
