Well I was finally able to get back on the water after 5 weeks in a cast and 2 1/2 weeks of physio from a broken foot.
I took a set with Trent when he was at my place which was great as always but when one isn't anywhere near 100% ...... well it sucks.
My back foot is the one I broke and this video is as evident as ever that I have work to do to get back to where I was.
I ran 4 @ 32 off just before my injury. This pass is 22 off and every time I hit the wakes my foot reminded me that it's still healing.
Small steps and living the NO PAIN = NO GAIN life! At any rate it feels great to be back on my ski even if it is UGLY!
Just wanted to share my terrible happiness with you all as I skied with my buddies.

At least you're back out. Maybe a heel lift in the back boot will help shift the pressure?? Keep your head up ... :-)

Whipped through a couple 28 off passes yesterday afternoon. It's sure funny how long some of these injuries take to heal.
After about 4 - 5 passes in the course my back binding starts getting really tight. Foot still swells but it's coming along slowly but surely.

At least you are in the water. We have 34 degrees this morning.
Good luck with Rehab
