What’s Your Story?
Whenever you see someone who’s struggling to find out a trick or just to remain upright, be encouraging. I often struggle to perform a thing new and could use your help and encouragement.
Please do not believe I’ll discover as quickly as you; face it, I’m 43 and not in the best shape. If I fall, it takes me longer to get up, longer to heal. It has nothing to perform with the fact that I’m a woman. It’s just harder somehow after all of these years off the board.
I broke both femurs, shattered knees and one ankle in an auto accident years ago. I still have a titanium rod from hip to knee and lots of hardware. My legs are uneven and my memory isn’t the best from a closed brain injury. I’m not whining though; I’m stoked!
I’m in fact undertaking this again . . . and I can! Yeah, I’m pretty proud of myself too. I’m healed and nobody can see the scars under my kneepads, shorts and shoes.
So in the event you see me struggling with anything, cheer me on!!!! I’m performing little carves and going using the flow and falling and obtaining correct back up.
If you’re thinking about obtaining out there and skating, now’s the time. If I can do it so can you! I’ll be there cheering you on!
