I had a buddy who lacerated his kidney early season and was back on the snow in two weeks. Not exactly the smartest decision, but if you can control yourself and just cruise you should be alright.

 

That's ignoring the fact that somebody can barrel into you and possibly kill you. It's a risky move.

It isn't worth it. Listen to the Doc, there's always next season.

uhhh.. if it's any consolation, the leader of the pack at BC busted his butt (and maybe his tailbone) last night and knocked his noggin while board sliding a box. I spoke with him last night in the parking lot, he was headed to go get it looked at. Damn... so many photo ops lost.

I think that by what he was saying was that he was getting cocky with end of the season progression. How awesome would have it been to have a picture of that! :lol

I am happy to report no broken bones but I do have a serious bruise that covers the majority of my butt and some heavily shaken internal organs.

 

Lessons learned: A) I am too old and fragile B) I should be a bubble boy
