Finally got my second skateboarding injury
Finally got my second skateboarding injury
Rolled ankle attempting a flatland kickflip, ouch oof owie
Yes I was wearing a helmet.
I was becoming pretty obsessed with skating recently and was like “ill do 100 moving ollies every day till its second nature” and was skating around for 6-8 hours. I ended spraining my ankle so bad couldnt walk for a week or 2. And I did it from…….
Failing an ollie lol
Ollie's are one of the hardest tricks you'll learn. Getting em good and down will make everything Ollie based easier, which is basically every trick invented after the Ollie.
Btw I didnt start feeling better until i started doing resistance band ankle workouts on month 2. I could finally start doing every trick after incorporating the workouts everyday.
Nice one. One time I bailed so badly I ended up in the hospital, my right shoulder is still visibly different from my left one and one of my ribs pokes out in a funny way now lol.
why would you try a kickflip no human has ever landed one
I landed a sketchy one (kind of a very tiny, maybe 30deg varial) trying to shuvit 3 years ago and have been chasing that high since.
After decades of rolled ankles, broken and dislocated fingers, shoulders and toes my last skateboard is a wall hanger now.
Be safe Conrad. This one won’t be your last rolled ankle.
Skateboarding is so rough on ankles, hope you heal up quick
You're gonna get a LOT of rolled ankles. If you haven't learned em yet, id suggest shin guards for shove it's until you have em down
or thick and tall socks under jeans, unless you want to look like you are going to a cricket match, ya jabroni.
About damn time
