I'm sure some of you have heard stories of GT taking waaaay worse hits than this in his dirtbike/4-wheeler days. I'm sure he'll be back & stronger than ever. That guy just doesn't stop.

Sorry to hear that! Heal fast and get a wristguard!
Sorry to hear about your wrist! Good vibes sent your way!
Like tippster said get the doc to mold your cast to your Ski pole. I broke my wrist and the doc would not mold my first 2 casts to my grip, but I did get him to mold the 3rd cast so I could get out and play.
have 'em cast a pole in your hand and git sum GT; heal up soon Doc!!!
Flykdog just called me. That sucks GT! :( Lemme know if you need anythiing, I drive right by everyday.
Heal up well.
I hereby summon all good vibes and Karma from this board and send them your way GT. Speedy recovery my friend.
D'oh!! :(
Just talked with GT. He's a little down, but not too bad. Surgery is slated for 4 PM tomorrow. Unfortunately it's his right hand that's injured. He wanted me to give a HUGE thanks to backpack for all the help he provided today, everything from the hill to the hospital and filling out paperwork for the docs (much needed given the hand injury). Much grattitude. Made a bad situation much better.
He says he'll probably be skiing again in around a week or so based on how things are feeling. Shooting pics probably won't happen much given the injury to the hand, but he can still ski. :D
He wanted me to let DTM know he won't be able to make it down to ski together as planned. :frown:
He said the skiing was great. Was killing it on the Spatulas all morning. Was hitting an icy section where two groomers came together in a run out and hit a hole of some sort while carrying a ton of speed. Bindings ejected, he wished they hadn't, and he hit the ice hard. Took out some poles and the like.
It sounds like he was really excited for the camp and would love to give it a shot later in the winter.
Damn, that is a major bummer. He was very stoked for the camp too. Hope all heals well GT. You'll be back in the saddle again in no time. Good luck with the surgery.
:( ..........
Bummer, GT. Heal fast!
Heal fast GT! You got a lot of positive karma still due your way!
dammit, when i read the title i was really hoping that ER was some Utard thing i didnt k no w about instead of the universal meaning most of us know all too well.
Take care dude and get better, broken wrists suck.
+++ Positive vibes being sent your way for speedy healing GT!
Too much carnage being reported on this board as of late... take it easy guys and gals! We've a whole season ahead of us, build your strength and skilz... be patient!
I hate to hear this, I hope for a quick recovery. Just think duct tape / pole / mitten. :D
Wouldn't you know it. Best of luck healing.
Holy Crap!!! I don't even know what to say here. GT, we'll make sure you go to one of the camps later in the year. Heal up man.

+ vibes.... Heal up.
OMG. That sucks so hard. just some bad luck, i guess, but karma owes you big time.
heal up quick GT40:)
a slight setback in plans...no big deal.
i hope surgery goes well, GT.
GT sorry to hear about the wrist.
I am sure you will heal up quickly, and I hope to see you at the mini.
As lph said... that just ain't right. Best of luck in the surgery and rehab GT. Hopefully we'll get to make some turns together out here in CO later this season.
I sure hope you're right Crinkle.Quote:

GT, I'm more than sorry you won't make this round. So heal up, and we all hope to see you asap.
Heal strong and quickly!
DAMNIT!
I'm really sorry GT. I was looking forward to getting to hang out with you to see just what type of creature spawned Meats.
Hope the surgery is a success and let us know how you are doing.
You've got a spot reserved at any of the remaining camps, for sure.
