I saw that there is not any thread about unicycling injuries, so i thought it would be a good idea to post somewhere our injuries, the tricks that caused them, as well as the safety gear we may need. So, let’s begin. Yesterday, i had my second injury (not serious) when i tried to make a better no-footer, landed on the pedals, but my one foot slipped and now my knee still hurts, and i can’ t go to practice now:(
last week after coming down some stairs I had a UPD that had my foot under the frame and my body on top of it. I heard a loud “POP” and thought I’d broken my ankle. It was just a sprain.
I was only a two set that I had come down many times before but I was tring to turn sharp as I came down.
a couple week ago I was practicing my unispins when I missed the peddal and fell unfoutunety I way practicing reght next to a 40’ hill alomst strait down so as I fell of the uni I also fell of the hill were I couldin’t move for 1/2 hour then wen I could move I had to roll,crawl and drag myself 1/4 mile home I could not walk for 2 weeks beacause of bad ankl pain lukuly nothing is broken I think.
ohh and wen I way down there my uni fell on my aswell
there are plenty of other threads that specify in this.
please use the search option in your toolbar.
edit: thats just a few of what i found in the FIRST page.
re edit: case and point, there ARE other threads about unicycling injuries.
the phrase is case in point.
On topic, I’ve bruised my ego many a time, and hurt my pride.
well, thats not the phrase around here.
Well, thats not what i’m hearing more so.
Yeah, ive got a bruised ego now… I still showed what needed to be shown though. I should jus tbring them all back up to the top of the forums for the heck of it.
ah interesting variation, and yes good job on digging up the old inury threads, you saved me the task of trolling through the search function
Also notice these threads are located in Rec.Sport.Unicycling, the proper forum for unicycling-related discussions.
Please try your best to post in the proper forum, thanks!
hmm this thread got moved.(nvm I thought I was in RSU…)
my injury is under “brag thread”
i fell really hard the other day actually. I got my tire jammed in a pallet, and i fell over, and landed on the edge of the pallet, then hit the ground with my face or something. It went really slowly, and just felt stupid. The only reason i use that pallet is that the boards are like 1/2’’ thick or more. It’s a fricken sturdy pallet.
