Well it's snowing 8cm/hour outside and has been for days now. Had about 50cm overnight and everybody is out riding and having a ball, meanwhile I have a broken wrist with steel pins in it (ski accident of course) which prevents me from getting out there.
This self portrait more or less sums up my thoughts on the subject.

Duct tape a plastic bag around that thing and get back out there. It's skiing, you don't need your hand. :)

The problem is the temporary pins that are joined to both my radius bone and the cast - so a fall on the cast could be devastating
