    Broken Hip! - (fractured acetabulum)

    Crashed the mountain bike pretty badly and fractured the posterior wall of my acetabulum. Spent a night in the ED, no surgery needed. First week was pretty awful, second week was mostly awful and it's improved gradually since then.

    I'm now biking up to 50 miles 11 weeks out without pain. However, my stride still hurts a bit.

    I'm wondering if anyone else has been through this? What will skiing be like? I still like to huck a bit (into soft snow), is this out of the question?

    I'm 28, pretty decent shape.

    Nothing to offer on prognosis but was there any damage to the articular cartilage?
