............... ruined my body. Broke most major bits, pulled stuff out of sockets and whenever winter starts to arrive all my joints and limbs just ache. What an old bastard. :( :(

Anyone else get messed up with this?

#266450Post 2 of 28

yes. my bones crack when the weather changes. i have strange pains all over my points of impact. my elbows and knees are shot to shit.

i would not change it for anything in the world.

i've had a calcium deposit in my ankle from birth. finally had some excess bone removed when i was 21. when it gets cold, my ankle hurts more. especially if i just sit around the house. but if i stay active, it's not so bad. damn them bones!

my knee is fucked up from getting whacked with a hockey stick when i was 10 or so. fucking bastard. then i made it worse with numerous footballing (soccer, whatever) injuries from around 13-16 years old... and then i stopped playing.. only once in a while now.....

sometimes my back starts to hurt... and i think thats odd.. and then 5 minutes later i cant move it hurts so bad.. its happened 4 times in the last 2 or so years, and i dont know why. i think its from not practicing proper lifting techniques doing warehouse jobs and the like.

Definately with you on that one.

I've bruised myself up pretty bad, and I have quite a few scars, but I haven't broken any bones. I've had plenty of people convinced (many times) that I had, though... the spills were all totally worth it.

skatebaording played a huge role in my life. the music, the culture, the girls. plus when i look back at it, we ruled, the jocks sucked.

Re: Skateboarding...........................................

I was never into skateboarding, i took the bmx route instead and Ive lost count of the injuries i recieve from my bike. Legs cut to ribbons and bruised when my foot came of the peddle at it came round and smacked me on the shins. Wedding tackle shoved back up into my stomach from hitting the crossbar :Whoaa: and knees gashed from falling off etc etc...

Re: Skateboarding...........................................

used to skate alot, was never much good at it tho...I started to surf this summer and absolutly love it. I'm going to Australia for a semester in Jan (Bond University, Gold Coast) so i'm looking forward to giving it a go there (will definitly get my ass kicked, just hope I don't get eaten by sharks or killed by one of the bazillion deadly poison creatures that Australia has to offer)
