Broke ass pinky?! lmao

Can someone please explain to me why a skier with a broken pinky finger can't compete...on...skis? lmao Sorry, feeling cheeky. Like, huuuullooooooo...you're at the Olympics. It was worth a try, no?

Re: Broke ass pinky?! lmao

  • Oh that Lindsay Vonn lol. I think she backed out because she's ashamed. She was supposed to go there and take all her events. I guess she's not as good as others though. 

     I think she is a great skier but to much hype IMHO.

  • Is it the slolum? if it is she can't compete.  Their hands hit those poles at super high speeds she could do serious damage to her hand and be out of competition for a year instead of a couple of months.  She is better to cut her losses and go home with the gold medal she already has.

  • Huh. I am not a skier so this is interesting. If it could cause further injury, I am glad she decided to steer clear.
  • Yeah, your hands are definitely in danger for slalom. Elite skiers are hitting every single gate they pass with either their hands or their shins, or both. When I skied in high school, I had a bruises on my knees all winter long, and broke a set of pole guards skiing slalom.
  • I didn't know that either, like Mel. If that is the case, I hope she heals soon.
