Oh man that sucks I had a pretty bad Corneal abrasion 2 years ago. And ever since then I wake up about twice a week because it feels like some 1 is stabbing me in the eye with a soldering iron. Oh and I can't open my eyes under water now either. Hope yours heels better than my did man glwh

Hey if you're not getting hurt, that means you're not pushing yourself! You differently are pushing it!

iunno cause i landed one doing it the exact same way...my x2 just might be to heavy for this its ultra reinforced and weights a decent amount more than a reinforced sn or rn sj
takes 3 people to lift it off the ground......with the amount im spending on medical bills i could have bought a rickter or a gtx2 which also really suks!

damn, these eye/facial injuries seem to be pretty common in this sport. Medical bills scare me. Hope you heal quickly.

Medical bills?? You mean you haven't drank the Kool-aid yet? I was at the e.r. A couple weeks back and I couldn't Effin believe the amount of people using it like it was a doctors office. Literally every seat was full yet no one was in any type of emergency

anyways heal up and get a lacrosse helmet, making me think about one now

I've considered lacrosse helmets for riding surf also... Seems like overkill until seeing this type of injury. Good luck with your vision and spine! Those are definitely 2 things that I'd prefer not to damage

Man i hope you heal up soon. I know how you feel, every real rider does. I cracked my collar hone last year trying FW barrels, didnt even know just in a good amount of pain but handful if advil kept me riding, was loading my ski into my truck slipped on the bedliner in my ranger my head hit the open rear window an broke my collar bone fully in 2 spots and then knocked me out, woke up to my GF doing about 95mph to the ER, then woke up again in a Cat scan machine haha. Rode 2 weeks later! Im praying for you, get well soon and buy a streetbike helmet haha.
