What injuries are you skating through?
« on: January 12, 2019, 11:27:34 PM »
Good old fashion bitch fest anyone? I have arthritis in my pushing foot due to some old broken bones, tried to revert out of a tailslide on a qp, my heel ended up stepping on the bottom of my toes. They just didn't heal, apparently. There are times when just pushing feels like my foot is breaking all over again. There's days it feels fine, which are blissful, and I've been compelled to lose thirty pounds to take some of the pressure off, so it aint all bad I guess. How about you?

A tweaked/rolled ankle on my stationary foot...I have to keep it wrapped b/c its not a sprain, and if I don't use the wrap my ankle feels like its going to fall off my body. This winter weather and the fact that its still dark out make it hard to decide to go out and rollerboarding. This and my flat feet don't help either  :(

i got the good ol' right ACL sprain.

After 9 months of recovery and 1 year of skating with braces, my knee never fully healed.

My push foot has repetitive stress.  My rib is just about better.  Shiddy back but thats permanant so it dosent count.  My shoulder is giving me grief -old dislocation.  To be fair too many concussions prolly makes me foggy but i dont take notice, i just count myself lucky it hasnt caused headaches.

I just turned 34 and I have the same issue. My ancles always hurt a little and if I don't skate for a few weeks they feel like they are getting a bit worse. I even had to stop skating hungover and having beers while skating, because that would always make it much worse. When I still did that it sometimes it got so bad I was unable to skate for months. It's chronic inflamation I guess. I find short sessions are usually fine and stretching helps. It sucks getting old.

Twisted my right(I'm goofy, btw) ankle hard last month and it still hurts a bit, twisted the left one last night, but that one will probably be good next week.

I’m not skating. 1 bulging disc. 2 herniated discs. A 4 inch mass of inflammation on my spine. Numb knees, numb right thigh and groin.   And an old shoulder separation that didn’t bother me until the last year or so.

I always skated through ankle injuries or other little things. But not this shit.

30 years old

3 ACL and meniscus surgeries 2004, 2007, 2012, same knee, premature arthritis has now arrived. Low impact only in my 30s.

hadn’t had any injury to speak of for years but that run came to an end in October when i dislocated my shoulder. About to ask the doctor for the ok to skate next Wednesday. Wish me luck.

I’m planning to go full Weck and pad myself with more muscle to protect against injury

I’m done skating because I tore my mcl about four months ago and have been regularly repsraining it every time I tried skating. It was fun, but had to disable my board setup cuz I couldn’t resist riding it. I’m a dumbass, and i live with a lot of pain(deservedly)
Hopefully I’ll be back in a few months, but it’s passing so slowly. It’s such a bummer

Tweaked my lower back and it somehow causes pain in my left testicle. To all the doctors out there reading these fascinating slap discussions, feel free to chime in with some advice.

Turf toe on my push foot

I started taping it up but then the pain spread to my forefoot like around the front of the arch. Cupsoles help, and pushing less. I stayed off it for 3 weeks and noticed no difference so fuck it I’m skating.

A very sprained ankle on my push foot. I'm struggling with flip tricks, but other stuff is okay.

Sometimes at night it does not feel like I am gonna make it.

Just twisted my ankle again today, I think I should just stop for a while.

Feeling like shit
Got a nice lil tye dyed blood shirt
Red Bull’s are losing their effect
Weird pain in my hip I don’t know where it came from
Batteries dead on my car, gotta jumpstart it
And a 6 hour drive ahead of us

like a few others here I also have a fucked up shoulder. the weather here is shit anyways so I'm just focused on rehabing it
Let me preface this post with the fact that I am slightly inebriated, very uneducated and I havent read any papers or done any research at all, or read your post really.

Blue balls lol

and tortured brain

Exactly.
I have nerve damage and prolapsed shit in my lower back, constant pain and risk or debilitating pain if tweaked the wrong way. The last time I fucked it and couldn’t skate OR walk for a week and a half.
Still recouping after tearing my left MCL in 2015 . Gives me shit every now and then and my leg is still much weaker than it was. I’m regular and can only really push switch mongo too so that leg gets my weight on it more or less constantly when I skate.
Have been considering wearing a knee brace while skating the type Reyes or Joslin rock. Either that or knee pads because I’m 29 and I’m only really getting used to skating transition. Plus that knee has that Osgood Schlater. The poor bugger never had a fighting chance

I have a bad sprain in my right wrist, the list goes on into more minor ones but that’s my awful anatomy for now.
I'm going to argue that Placebo owes their entire career to a Canadian dude's skate video part. Appleyard should be getting royalties for this shit.
