losing tricks

[gjdadj]

i broke my ankle doing 5 stairs, and i wont be able to ride for 4 months or so including rehab, and my ankle will be weak as until im done with rehab and will never be as strong again, whats the chances ill lose all my tricks?? who else has broken a ankle and can let me know how riding will be afterwards? wether ill even BE able to?? im thinking of quitting and that'd suck for me cus im quite good at riding and scootering is my life, i need to know what im up for when my cast comes off,

thanx

I broke my foot not an ankle but still I was off a leg for a good two months, and I had surgery on it. It only took me about a week to regain all my tricks flat.

if you can do them you wont lose them. even if you do youll probably learn it back in a week anyways like stackies said

i broke my ankle in the worst place possible by landing an inward 5 stair with one foot in a wheelie kinda thing lol. anyways, i was in crutches for 2 months and then didnt regain full mobility of my ankle for a further six months after that, yes it hurt to walk every day for about six months after i broke it. now just a year after i broke it, its as strong as it has ever been and i can land that inward 5 stair now, so dont worry about losing your tricks

yah, i broke the fibula, it only carries 10% of ur weight but is the pivot point of ul leg, and the further down ubreakn it the worse it is, mines 1 inch from the bottom, i just had a operation and now theres 3 screws and a titanium plate holding the mess together, still think i can ride? it hurts to LOOK at my ankle.....

I had bar twists, then stopped doing EM, and I lost EM completely.

I find during periods of not being able to ride, doing something else that involves both hands and thinking stops me losing my tricks - I went on a 5 week holiday last year but by playing the piano I only lost like one trick which I got back after a couple of days.
