Snowboardcrash

Here I am..

I'm back from a trip to falun, a place in Sweden, where I was snowboarding with my family and my brothers friend.

It was quite good, except for my fall the last day;

I don't remember a single thing from this day, but by looking on the video of me, and from what my brother and my dad have told me, I was going for a tailgrab on a jump which was quite big.

When grabbing a tailgrab, I had to pull my back leg up so I could reach the tail. When doing that, I lost balance in-air.

My body began to lean more and more forward, and suddenly I hit the ground.

My snowboard's nose got stuck in the snow and I smashed my head into the landing. Then I rolled down and from what they told, I was a bit dizzy, but then I went down the snowboardpark and I even did a frontboard on a kinked rail.. just like nothing had happened.

After that I went to some kind of doctor, who told me to go to the nearest hospital.

My diagnosis (I don't think that's the word I'm looking for, whatever) was concussion and some other stuff.

Nothing sprained or broken, thank god.

I don't remember anything from yesterday, it's like if I told you that you visited my house yesterday, don't you remember?

Well, apart from that, my vacation was quite nice.

My fall is in the end of this movie

(Couldn't find a better place to host the video)

That fall looked painful. I've never been snowboarding before (too expensive…). I got concussion once when my friend dump tackled me and I landed on my head, half my body went numb and I felt really dizzy for a couple minutes. But no memory loss.

Ouch, that looked bad. Never been snowboarding before. No snow. (or not enough of it)
