Hey, guys. I figured I would post up an update since there have been a few different reports on my riding status as of now. At Alpine Meadows yesterday during Shredfest IV on my second run I went for a 180 wallride to fakie (backwards) 360 off and went way too fast, which sent me far and inverted. I flew deep and dropped about eight feet (Dave Lynam estimated the height) onto my side, smashing my head down and landing directly onto my left shoulder. I was wearing a helmet and my head was perfectly fine. But, I knew right away that I had messed up my shoulder. I went to the medic and then to the hospital where it was confirmed that I had a Grade 2 Shoulder Separation. I am off skiboards for six weeks and for the sake of both my sanity and The Junk Show I will film again in late April and May to release one more Junk Show episode (on top of the Shredfest episode) before the season ends.
Ironically, I injured my good shoulder. I am going for surgery in June on my right shoulder to repair major damage I've received after ten dislocations over the past fourteen months.
