So I got wrecked trying to hit a 7 stair handrail today sadly so why not use this time to learn.
Any advice or tips on different types of injuries here? What have you guys been through and what do you think is the craziest spill you've seen someone take?

I fractured my knee, never saw a doctor for it, and now it's like permanently numb lol

I feel down a mountain on my dirt scooter while turning too sharp too fast and shredded my left elbow and chest up real bad and I ripped my other knee open, and again never saw a docter to get my knee stitched up, I just threw a guaze pad on it and sat on the couch for a couple days till I could walk again lol

And I tore a muscle in my foot pretty badly about 7 months ago slipping out of a trick, I just recovered from it like 2 months ago. I iced that thing every night for like 2 months

I have broken my toe and my thumb 4 times but nothing else. I used to be such a pussy so now that I commit more to riding I get injured more but I never stop riding unless I cannot ride at all. I was straightlining this black glades trail on my board and I forget about the cliff and ollied huge over this roller only to realize that my landing wasn't there and flipped and broke my thumb and re-rode it and stuck it right after with no glove because of my thumb. My friend had to strap me in the rest of the day XD

I used to get hurt sooo much.
Then i learned how to fall and just get the normal falls and road rash stuff
I faceplanted like 2 years ago and broke my front tooth in half. Got it fixed the next day and its all good. Makes a good story.

I was contemplating going riding still though after removing my pegs (for the rest of my life) and let my hand sit for a while, but my mum took me to hospital and that's how I found out it was actually (and apparently) fractured haha

I could literally die and if still be up for a ride

first year of riding i cased a ledge thats about 1.5 feet tall and did a full on face first catapult to the ground and my braces went right through my top lip, also a few years ago (on the VERY first day of summer) me and my friend went dtreet riding and there was a like 7-8 stair i think and i wanted to double whip it but you had to jump up a curb like 5 feet before the set and i clipped it and broke my wrist -.- all summer i had to tell people i broke my wrist jumping a curb

Wow @Devin DePriest you also got wrecked doing that little tiny line at that school
First major injury was from when i tried to brakeless manny this little curb ( when i first started ) and i slipped out but half of my foot was off the curb and half was on it and i landed on it so it got really mangled. I couldnt walk for atleast 2 months i never saw a doctor but my moms friend is one and she said that she was sure it was fractured but oh well i dont feel it anymore just sudden cramps but oh well.
Next is when i tried to do a hurricane but tried to hop over the rail at the end and faceplanted that didnt feel good @Cadenp was there.
Next major one is i was doing a clip got one trick done and was going up a quarter pipe at the local and didnt see a skater kid coming across the park and we tagged each other he elbowed me and i fell pretty hard. I had really bad brusing on my ribs and then i couldnt ride or even pick things up for atleast 2-3 months it hurt so bad to even hop up a curb. Thats been it for these last year but i honestly dont fall alot i just bail. Oh ya and @Cadenp was there for that one too.

Broke my toe on my halfpipe trying like salad fingerwhip or something dumb like that last summer. I wasnt even close and I tried to land it and the deck just landed on my foot and I stomped down on it with my back foot hahaha

I swear I'm always getting hurt haha. Like I'd eat it and right as I'm starting to recover, I get back out there and eat shit again. On Thursday I ate shit hill bombing cause I hit a pothole, I was just hella lucky that I hit it right cause it like corked my body and i landed on my backpack and shoulder and knee and fucked up my hand when I would've easily smashed my head and face hahah. But today my hand was feelin better and the scab came off so i went out to sesh this box and did a whip front feeble and my front foot didn't make it on the deck and landed half on the box and half off and i swear my foot like bent up almost to where it hit my leg. It was killer and its swollen af so I'm out for a bit again. Till next sesh hah

I've fractured my left ankle and foot, sprained each ankle, sprained each wrist, dislocated/broken big toes, concussions, broke a knuckle, and split my chin open. Mostly on stupid stuff nothing to gnarly. But the one time that sticks out in my mind was slamming straight on my elbow trying frontflips. Damaged the nerve and cant feel when i slam on it now. which i guess is pretty cool.

I've ridden downhill with short Pants. I was already hurt on my knee and than I don't know how but I slipped out or something and I feel on my knees and I grinded on my knees till I had like not much Speed anymore and I crashed my face into a car. haha I gave Bandage over it and next day I wanted to give it away from my knee but there was a crast in the Bandage so I had to tear down that and it hurt so much...

Uggghhh I can feel that on my knees right now. I used to always fuck up my knees until I got decent with falling.
