A friend of mine were playing a game of skate. He ollied onto a one-foot-box. I ollied and got up there, slipped, and fell on my tailbone. It was so sore that I couldn't skate for a couple of days. I had only skated for a couple months at that time, so.

Clearing a 4 foot gap but not landing it. Messed up my ankle. This was 2 months ago and I still can't skate yet.
falling sucks

i fell from the coping of a 6 foot pool and put my hand out and busted my wrist. then my head hit the ground and it was ringing all day and i thought i was bleeding from my ears. the place i was at required me to wear a helmet and it saved me. The doc says i probobly wouldve busted my head clean open.

I tripped over a peice of pretzel abou the size of a quarter going about 2 mph and I fell on my elbow, knee, and hip. I was so ****ed up I couldnt skate for a week.
I also fell going up a loading dock ramp and landed on my face going at a medium speed.. There was a pretty big cut and you can still see the scar from about 2 weeks ago. It didnt even hurt and right after that I started skating for at least 2 hours.
weird...

I was boardsliding a curved double sided curb, and the back wheel made contact with the curb, (I was going fast, needless tae say) and I hit my chest and face on the curb and put five of six gashes in my hand.

Ok this was pretty recent... I was at the park and we were having an air off to see who could do the highest air trick. Ok so it was my turn and I was going to try a 180 indy and I made it and then decided to make it better, to tweak it, so then I tweaked it and my hand lost grip on grip tape! and I landed side ways and unluckily I got enough air to go down the bank on the other side so I landed on my shoulder which ripped through my shirt giving me a nasty burn and then skinning my whole ankle bone that hurt like a bitch. And seriously it felt like someone took a lighter and burned my shoulder. and by the way I slid all the way down the bank at like 20mph

I barely ever fall, I don't push myself until I have all parts of a trick pretty much dialed though. So for a kickflip in motion I have to be landing 9/10 stationary or I won't attempt anyway. I was manualling this massive marble floor type thing, I went to switch it round into a nose manual but after about 2 seconds I hit a tiny stone or something completely lost my balance span around and landed on my elbow. Phwoar it was throbbing. But that's about it.

i dunno but i ate shit on a massive 12 today. i ollied a normal 10 earlier today and this 12 made the 10 look tiny. definetly the biggest gap i've ever seen/tried in person.

Messing around with front 5-0 shove-it out at 1:45am, leaned way forward on accident, supermanned onto my chin. Jawbone was exposed, and I got 9 stitches. I'm still pretty spooked from that, and I'm pretty apprehensive about 5-0 grinds even though they're easy.

My worst fall is when I fell doing a 4 stair awhile back. I went to ollie it and didn't notice there was a crack about a foot after the last stair. My back wheels got caught in the crack and you can imagine the rest.

One time, I was skating down my road and i saw the most elegant deer. I was so caught up in the deer that I didn't see the car coming. I got hit by the car and died. The end.

Worst was probably on Roller Blades, I was coming down a 5 ft Quarter and jumping way up and over a 3ft spine and my legs slipped out and I landed on my butt, I couldn't breath right for a few minutes and noone was around, it was really scary....On a skateboard it was probably spraining my ankle back in December off a 3 1/2 ft ledge.

Broke my wrist dropping in, broke my wrist when i got speed wobbles, snapped ligaments on a small stair set, broke toe from board landing on it. Couple of fluid build ups and head shots. It's all good.

My worst wipe out isn't from a skateboard, I don't really have any bad skating ones. Mines from my bike, I was going down the street at a pretty fast speed. It was winter so salt was on the ground, so I go onto a salt patch not noticing it, since it's night. My bike slides out from under me and my entire arm was bloody. I was going to see a friend of mine so when I got there, she was like "You got ****ed up! Haha!" It took for ****ing ever to heal, because one of them was really deep. Like 6 months to heal. ><

my friend mark had this sick box back in the day. i did a fs crooks but i slipped off at the end and sliced my shin open on the tip of the angle iron. that hurt... if uve ever seen 'in bloom' in the bails section, someone (i think mike taylor?) sliced their shin open and thats how mine looked basically.

Mine would have been yesterday. I was at my friend's house skating this box by myself because everybody else went inside. The box isn't very long so there isn't much time to set up for anything. So I figured if I went slower I would have more set up time. Well I skated slowly up to the box ollied and because I was going so slow my backwheel caught, keep in mind I can easily ollie this box. So I flew forward and put my shoulder out to the take the fall, big mistake,when I landed on it my head whiped and smaked the ground. And the messed up part is that a car was driving by and saw the whole thing and didn't stop to ask if I was okay.
Edit: forgot to say I was not wearing a helmet

I'll take a former post off another thread as my worst wipe-out......
A couple of hours ago, I was trying to do this gap(only about 20 inches) and I was seriously going as fast as I could(about 15-18 MPH) and my back wheels caught the other side of the gap when I landed. That sent my board about 20 feet back and sent me flying through the air. I flew about 3 feet, then landed and skid on my back another 5 or so feet.

My board has really bad razor tail and somehow or another it ended up stabbing me in the ankle...like super deep. It might not be my worst injury, but was the most painful, and it left a pretty gnarley scar.

luckily i havent had any serious injuries. or maybe i have and i just didnt know it.
ill just do them in order of when they happened. these are just memorable ones i have.
almost 7 years ago when i first started, before i even got real trucks for the first time, my dad came to pick me up from the park.. i wanted to show him how totally gnarheshtastic i was so i set my board in a 5050 on this down-flat ledge.. rode down, across, stopped.. then i popped out and my front foot came off before i landed, and it popped up and hit me in the nose.. i started bleeding a lot, and then i went to my dads truck and got his gym towel and totally drenched it with blood. it was awesome. we were laughing. i always laugh when i get hurt, even when i was 9 or 10 or however old i was.
then a little over 2 years ago i was at the top of a big bank, or speedramp, standing on the deck of it. i had one foot on my board and one on the ramp, and i pivoted around to push and then go down it. i dont remember which knee it was.. im thinking it was my left.. but i just felt something like.. snap sort of, even though im sure nothing snapped.. and then before i realized how much it hurt i was already going down the ramp.. so i rode across the park, stopped, and picked up my board and limped away. i honestly couldnt walk right for 2 weeks without major pain, and the muscle right below my kneecap wouldnt flex at all. i tested it. i stood up and put weight on my good knee, and it flexed, but not when i did the same with the other side.
and it just hurt so i didnt really skate for at least a month. it still hurt after that but it was bearable. then it kind of went away by the end of the year when i was in school.. but one day i was in gym and i was on my knee, and then i started standing up and it clicked again and started hurting the same way.. but it went away in half an hour or so.. thats the last time i remember it hurting. i havent had any problems since..
the last one was when i was warming up doing my normal speed lines/manuals/little pops through the park, and i went up the big funbox.. the banks are about the size of long 8 sets, and the flat top is probably 20 feet or something. so i was just going fast and manualled across, but i stuck right before i went down the bank i guess on some loose piece of wood or a screw or something, and flew all the way down the bank to the bottom. i landed right at the end.. my legs were on the ramp mostly, but my body hit the floor.. it was rad. i slid for a few feet, and i was wearing a windbreakerish thing and the friction melted it and i got a burn scar on my arm. i also basically broke/dislocated my pinky, and it felt like i broke my arm. but i didnt. i just got up, looked back at my friend who was standing up where i dropped in, and he was laughing and i was too.
oh yeah, there was one more.. i just got to the park, and i was warming up again. this is one of my stupidest injuries. its stupid because i got hurt pretty decently, but on some tiny little thing. allllllll i was doing was going to manual a little manual pad. size of a sheet of plywood, about 7 inches high. so i guess i was too relaxed and i didnt try at all.. my back truck clipped the box, and i flew to the other side and smashed the hell out of my ribs on the other side. it knocked the wind out of me and i could barely breathe at all for half an hour, and it felt like my whole ribcage was broken. but then i started to be able to breathe again, and i started skating. my ribs still hurt, but it was bearable. and then later that day my board got stolen. that was the first day id skated the deck, and the trucks. i dont think i had a scratch on my board yet because im not a fan of boring boardslides, and i dont do tail/nose slides much, so yeah. and i had one check 5050 on the trucks (check, meaning i checked a ledge to see if it slid.)
