Mad_Footer Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Unfortunately, first barefoot run of the season and hit a piece of wood in the water. Luckily was wearing barefoot shoes but injured my knee. Got in the boat and the knee hyperextended - damn did that hurt! To complicate matters, a clot formed behind the knee the next day. MRI showed a complete tear of the ACL and tear of both meniscus. Repair surgery scheduled about a week from now. Going to be long summer :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad_Footer Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 Well, been back skiing since May (one year after injury) and although don't think the knee will ever get completely back to where it was at age 55, it does not bother me on the slalom ski. Now, not sure that I can get the courage back up to start barefooting again. What about others on the forum - anyone barefooting after an ACL repair?

Baller Skoot1123 Posted August 24, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 24, 2021 Ah man that is a bummer about the injury. Glad you can at least ski slalom though. Hoping you can get back to footing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ISP6ball Posted August 24, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 24, 2021 @Mad_Footer barefooting won't be a problem for you. If you've been pretty religious with your rehab, you should be able to get back to all your physical activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
