I get my cast off today and in 3 days I can resume unicycling…it should be awesome…I will forever have to unicycle with an ancle brace but that shouldnt be to bad. I cant waid till I get this rank stank cast off its really starting to reak and its horrid.
so you can take me off the injured reserve list
becouse im back …almost
awesome. i bet you are pretty excited.
i know i would be.
im going to see the aquabats and streetlight manifesto tonight. woot…that doesnt have anything to do with this thread, but i saw that you are also a cadet.
Bravo, Warren! Being released from a cast is one of life’s most joyful experiences! (Not unlike getting off your ship and going ashore after 92 days at sea!) What kind of ankle brace will you be using? I’m in the market for one myself.
Keep in mind that your muscles under the cast are going to be very weak from not being used. It is going to take much more than three days to get back up to speed. Take things really easy for a couple weeks. You don’t want to start tearing up muscles and ligaments.
Be patient and don’t hurt yourself further. Exercise those muscles carefully.
Something else to look forward to is the flaking dead skin. Be prepared to shed a lot.
well it turns out that there making me wait 3 more weeks before i can uni again
ronnie they gave me what is called an air cast…it a brace but i dunno how it would hold up 2 upds so i will prolly get another one when i start up again
but yes it was pretty gross when they took it off
but atleast i can take normal showers and swim now

I have an air cast, you can ride with one on, but its hard to put shin guards over them. I recommend not riding until you dont need the air brace, cause one slight twist or bad landing will not be good at all.
i havent seen streetlight manifesto in concert yet but i saw the aquabats in there “teenage pagamas from space tour” (thats what i think it was) it had the aquabats, the epoxies and the phenomnauts it was a pretty awsome concert…
huzaah im on a hero list…just to let you know my super hero name is huzaah-man
I am the masked unicycling caped avenger of justice
Do you have an academy sports and outdoors store near you dorfman?
I wore a airsplint for my last ankle injury, it was expensive at the pharmacy. Academy carries them for about 5 dollars, same product.
Where on the bone did you fracture your fibula? Was it the result of repeated ankle injuries?
I have hurt my anle several times and can reccomend the air splints, as they do a good job of limiting ankle movement side to side, yet still allow you to move your foot up and down.
My best pointer is to pick up some boxing handwraps, and wrap one around the airsplint after you put it on, it adds a lot to what you can do without further injury. Good luck on the rehab.
