The Fallen of Riverslide

We few of us went to Riverslide Skatepark in the morning, mostly practicing on some runs, ollies and some skate pics.

A mate and I decided to go up the Big Ramp for some adrenaline rush and quick boost for an ollie.
Little did we know, lady luck wasn't with us.

So yeah, he did a slip and fractured his left ankle... which required a surgery and some titanium pins to hold it in place. Talk about bad luck. =/

Just came back from the ward, he's in the surgery room atm. Hope he recovers quickly and manages to join us soon. For now, he's out of the league.

It's photo time and sorry bout the pics, our cameraman ain't that good with the D90 SLR.

P/S: Epic title bout an accident. You know I'm good. :D

Oh dear! i pray for speedy n complete recovery for your friend. It must hv hurt alot. This kind of sport does carry a greater risk of injury to your ankles esp when you fall. Do be extra careful, Ming.

NA: I'll do fine, don't worry.

DD & MM: Don't worry lah, I won't be competing on the extreme tricks category. Just doing simple ollies. :)
