Gabe Smith Snowboarding Accident Vail Colorado

[cegopr95]

My first skiing accident was in vail colorado .... Busted my leg pretty bad but im back on my feet.... Be careful guys, injuries are no laughing matter

[omyfg]

i broke my L2 vertebrae too snowboarding, but it wasn't like this... I'm still on pain killers though and it's been 8 months.. idk if i should be off them yet but i'm still in pain from time to time and know these are addicting and are habbit forming but i can't help it cuz i am in pain too.. lemme know waht your post injury was like man, that would be realy helpful.

[matthewcarney]

@omyfg Not sure you really want to know. Gabe was back boarding 4-6 weeks later. His core was strong and healed super fast. The doctors were shocked.

even though it might not of looked like a bad fall, he still crushed hi vertebrae, and i can only imagine how muchpain/annoyence that is.

[laddforde]

I really am not trying to be a dick. but in the park you see this all the time and no one ever knows what to do when if they just read the signs like your supposed to it makes your life allot easier.

I am really sorry for you like that blows! being injured is never fun. (especially the back) and i cant relate to the back but ive broken ribs, my pelvis, and both of my ankles 3 three times each. and it sucked everytime. but i hope you healed up well and if i could i would buy you a shot of jack.

[laddforde]

my friend a couple months ago broke 7 vertebrae lacerated his liver broke 3 ribs and punctured his lung... so yes i have seen and dealt with situations exactly like this and some allot worse. working for a mountains park crew you see broken backs all the time. but its really not so difficult to call ski patrol. #221 and if you dont know that you are supposed to call ski patrol instead of yelling at people on the lift. YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE PARK! read the terrain park sign!

you guys are morons... call ski patrol.. fuck! really not that difficult of a situation... i deal with that stuff at least once a week. 

[matthewcarney]

@laddforde Really? L2 Vertebrae crushed.

[monkey298]

@matthewcarney Really? L2 Vertebrae crushed.... on a little baby box??? Shit i guess i should never underestimate any park feature.

[gregboarder]

I go there every year but I wait until the last day to do that. Oh well, a night in the hospital in Vail is still cheaper than a condo.

[joerover22]

[AAzipoppaa9]

[Sh00t1stAskLater]

[BryceLCallaway]

Looks like you made all the way across the rail, but just hit the ground wrong. I love that Matt want to keep the camera going after the fall.
