Get well Charlie Blair
« on: August 31, 2017, 09:16:23 PM »
I know very few people here like Powell Peralta these days, but Charlie Blair is one of their pros and he's a rad skater.

Dude apparently crushed his wrist skating and is probably going to lose some fingers because there's no blood flow.
The surgeries he's undergone to save his hand are freaking horrifying (you can see it on his Insta).

Really lame. I hope he gets to keep all of his digits.

Straight up saw that shit and that's horrible. He destroyed an artery and had to try to replace it with a vein and he still might lose his pinky and ring finger after all of that shit.

He's literally sitting in the hospital watching his fingers turn black and wither

This is an awful injury, hope he heals up. At least he does ride for  Powell. We know that hell be taken care of and probably has insurance.

He posted another pic saying he's recovering now. looked like the blood was flowing to all of his fingers now but I'm not 100% on that.
