Baller bigtex2011 Posted May 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 23, 2018 I've suffered with Golfers elbow for the past 2 seasons. I've had it many times over the years but it typically hasn't stuck around like last year and this year. Last night I slept(passed out) with a barely snug ace bandage around my elbow and woke up to nearly no pain. Most of the time its crazy painful in the morning. Hope this helps others.

Baller_ MISkier Posted May 23, 2018 Baller_ Share Posted May 23, 2018 Aleve. Do deep water start with both hands in overhand grip, then switch. Focus on straight arms through the wake and don’t pull in with your arms/biceps. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RAWSki Posted May 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 23, 2018 I had that in the past and had to use a compression wrap just below the elbow for a couple seasons . I also switched to @MISkier 's double overhand (OLD old school) pull ups . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller lewis310 Posted May 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm fighting the same issue. Here are the things I've found and am trying. 1) Using an elbow wrap from CVS pharmacy 2) Just ordered a curved anti-roll handle with a larger diameter (currently at 1.00 moving to 1.060. 3) Reverse Tyler twists with Theraband (blue) to stretch tendons. 4) Ibuprofin Given, I have not received the handle yet, but of the others I believe the Theraband is helping the most.

Baller cragginshred Posted May 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 23, 2018 Stretch your forearm flexors and ice -simple This addresses the cause not just bandaging the symptoms. pm if you want more clinical perspective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller vernonreeve Posted May 23, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 23, 2018 For me, it's a clue that I'm not letting my arms go straight when crossing the wakes. A strap that goes just under the elbow eliminates the pain, but ultimately I should be letting my arms go straight. As soon as I let my arms go straight, the pain will eventually go away. I have the radius handle, which I really like, but I still get the golfers elbow if I bend my arms. So I agree with what MlSkier said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Spuddy Posted May 24, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 24, 2018 Finding a good physio therapist helps as well. I had the same issue two years ago finally went to physio and it’s much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller UWSkier Posted May 24, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 24, 2018 Biggest thing I've found to help mine is to not hold on to big slack hits. Big slack hit will have my elbows screaming the next day even with good stretching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ghutch Posted May 31, 2018 Baller Share Posted May 31, 2018 Great tip on having both hands down when getting up. I have been using that now for several weeks and the pain has greatly reduced for me. Funny how it never hurt while skiing. Thank God! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
