Hi, here is a short fun edit from winter, pre injury.

Hope you enjoy!

Yes - I did enjoy it thanks :thumbup: That is until the x-ray - I do work with broken bones but am very squeamish about seeing them on x-rays. Hope you're mended :cry:

Quality.
I guess doing what you do all season, its inevitable that there's going to be broken bones.
Some awesome jumps there though.

Fell asleep after 15 seconds ... bloody music :evil:

I enjoyed it until the crash and X-Ray...Liked it that you were smiling at the very end though :thumbup:

Suprised at Tony (Mr Bobble) who I know is very well informed about skiing injury statistics. Over the last three seasons I've seen many, many people doing that kind of stuff in the parks and very, very few 'breakages' or injuries even. Of course there's a risk but it's certainly not inevitable. There seems to have a been more injuries this year for some reason, I know of about 6 or 7, but most of those were done off piste.

I know people who think that breaking something is inevitable if you go on a skiing holiday! :wink:

I just think if you are doing that kind of skiing then there's an obvious increased risk of injury.
Wasn't it in the park that you broke your leg?

Yes, and the lady that had the same injury as me in the hospital was on a plateau and almost stationary. Where I had my accident doesn't prove a point Tony. I've had many, much bigger more spectacular 360 crashes on piste at speed than the one that caused my injury. Whilst I agree that there is probably an increase in risk, it's certainly not inevitable. You should try it sometime, it's not that hard if you start with the really little ones!

Not for me thanks
