>Midwest skiier, even the casual skis here are cut like ice skates for good reason

(also the secret is that all the good tree skiing is actually hidden on the frontside)

>can't catch an edge
>CAN'T CATCH AN EDGE
keep in mind that while it's still a "slope" and has some "hill" sections, it's icy and mogulled and really more of a 300ft tall snow-based cliff... Apparently the snow comp had changed while I was gone and I had forgotten to consider that when making the decision to simply fly off the edge at high speed.
>tumble down the whole hill
>of my very high din skis only one pops off
>I can't walk, have to get carted away by Ski Patrol
At least I didn't hit the snowmaker or break my spine?
I had to get my ACL reconstructed, very fucked!
How hard do you think it'll be to get back into the swing of things this season? Does acl surgery really make skiing that much harder?

Tanner Hall has fucked his ankles beyond belief and still sends it big. Candide collapsed his spine and is still bashing pillow fields. Sammy Carlson tumbled down a couloir a mach speed and is pushing freeride more than anyone else.
Get yourself a physio therapist, and start exercising and doing yoga every day. More specifically yoga than exercise. Focus on your ankles (both). It will be hard but you will get through it. Check the link I attached, this guy has got all the poses and yoga routines you could possible need. Youl get through it anon, maybe wait for there to some powder before you hit that cliff again.

I fucked up my ankle roller blading and am not going to go back to skiing, is snowboarding unironically worse for your ankles than skiing?

>be me, skier from the midwest
>know OP is full of shit because usually midwest groomers are better condition than out west groomers and are almost never icy
>knows OP is a gaper because he doesn't know the difference between the terms 'catch an edge' and 'hold an edge'
But anyway OP I wish you luck on your recovery. I haven't had an ACL injury so I have no idea. I did break a leg skiing, was out the rest of the season but was fine the next season. My friend has had some injuries I think including an ACL injury, and I think one of his injuries (maybe the ACL) affected him still to some extent a few years later but didn't stop him from skiing. Not sure on the details though, haven't talked to him in a few years after we both moved.
Whatever the case, maybe you'll have lasting effects this winter, maybe not, but no point in worrying about that now, just go ski and see how you feel.

Not really. There’s far more style and variation to freestyle skiing. Only so much you can do with both feet locked to one plank

As a snowboarder idk why this dude and most freestyle snowboarders are such insecure cucks when it comes to skiiers.
Who gives a fuck what u strap to ur feet as long as you can rip. Anybody who seriously cares about this “rivalry” is usually some pathetic insecure child.
Anybody get first turns this week? Im stuck in the ice coast for this season so I just hit up killington
