Hey everyone about 5 weeks ago I broke my arm in PE at school. I get my cast off next week , Do you think ill be able to ride at a skatepark? Im afraid ill pop the bone over the other bone and need surgery and a new cast. If so should I use the extra thick razor pro grips for less shock absorption in my arm?

Please Reply!

Edit : Ewww! I did a briflip and moved my wrist back too much (getting used to new bars) and felt my bone move :S

lol. is all i can say

Also maybe just let it chill for a week or so, for peace of mind, and if you're that rattled about riding with a busted arm, ask your doctor. He'll know better than any of us.
But I would say go ahead hahah. I rode with a fractured left hand, hurt like hell but it still works fine. Not recommended

Well Im sorta new to the sport so I can only tailwhip barspin ect and I was going to let it heal for like 2 weeks after I get it off then go to the skatepark.

Ask the doctor, what he tells you will most likely be a little bit overkill, but do it anyway. It's better to be safe than sorry. I'd rather wait a week or so to ride than fuck my arm up again and be in a cast for another couple months.

Ok guys I got it off , The doctor said I can in 4 weeks but before that if I fall (as if) I WILL break it again. What do you guys think? Is the risk worth it?

Just don't fall. Be careful. I sprained my wrist really bad a while back, I had a cast. and even after I got it off I couldn't ride for three weeks without it killing me.

Trust your own judgement, if you feel as though surgery is the craziest thing in the world, and you'd die from it, don't ride until your arm can handle abuse. It's what YOU think is safe. I myself would let it stay until it feel fine to move, but if it's hurting you, and you mind that, just go get some Timmy's and chill out for a week.
