The first time I rode park like a year ago I was on my friends bmx, I tried to air a quarter pipe, hit theback wheel on the coping on the way back in and did like a flip of the bike onto my head on concrete, I bent his bars, he WAS NOT HAPPY.

I'm not even going to read this thread. I don't want to hear, see or even think about injury. It's hard enough for me to get my 44 year old balls to do anything new or challenging.

the most I had was a broken collar bone, dislocated shoulder, and sprained wrist in one crash, and to fatstu that's pretty brutal, glad your still riding!

Stupid gap across a large stream to broken wrist. Kept riding in extreme pain, gave up and went to hospital 2 days later. Broke.

Sustained a few grim injuries riding DH, nothing too serious, but serious enough that my local hospital's A and E know me pretty well now. But one particularly annoying crash was at a portable 4 foot kicker that me and my mates had been sessioning all morning. Nothing difficult, but on my umpteenth run of the day, as I took off the ramp moved slightly, twisting my bars in the air and forcing me face first into the concrete. We were only messing about, so I didn't have my helmet on. I ended up with a concussion, a tasty gash on my chin and a couple of broken fingers. The fingers were damn annoying; to be kept off my bike from a silly crash that really shouldn't have happened pissed me right off.
