Have you had your ACL rebuilt?

Are you heading back to the same resort for 2010/2011 season?

I had no rebuilt for the broken ACL. The doctor in Courchevel said your are too old and there is a 80% chance you can do skiing it without. And 10% of the soccerplayers does not have an ACL without knowing this. You only have to do excercises to improve the muscles in your upperleg.

I will stay in my appartment in Les Menuires during 2010/2011.

Lesmen27, the doctors seems to only want to rebuild ACL's for young folks. I'd say you have a 100% chance of skiing with a snapped ACL. I know one person who learned to ski with an ACL missing (snapped). 25 years later, and he's still skiing with it missing. He does use a Cti brace these days, which seems sensible.

Great to hear that you are planning to ski the whole season :thumbup:

Have you ever noticed what professional football players legs look like ?



If you have legs lake that, I guess you may not miss your acl :lol:
