Administrators Horton Posted September 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 13, 2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CTxQKYQrdE1/?utm_medium=copy_link Reposted from @the_zack_worden Hello everyone, I know most of you already know about my jump crash on Saturday and thank you for reaching out checking on me and sending me messages. I’m currently in the trauma unit at ORMC with a spinal injury and a fractured sternum. The trauma team has me immobilized and the neurology team has scheduled my surgery for tomorrow. The goal is to fuse my thoracic spine with plates and pins to the two vertebrae above and below my T6 burst fracture. Fortunately, I dodged a bullet with this injury and the MRI shows that I don’t have any damage to the actual spinal cord and I have feeling and movement in my arms and legs. The head and neck CT scans were good with no bruising on my heart from the sternum fracture. Long term prognosis is great and the neurosurgeon believes I will not have any lasting damage from my injuries. Love you all. ❤️ thank you to my home team for being here for me.

Baller Cooper_Trelawney Posted September 13, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 13, 2021 Crashes at his level of jumping can be so freaking violent! I remember when he set the collegiate record at Bennett's. I don't think I've ever seen anyone cut so late. Get well Zack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller bojans Posted September 13, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 13, 2021 Camille stated on FB that he is expected to make a full recovery but will never jump again. It is so unfortunate that he is forced to quit jumping due to injury. Heal well Zack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller skier2788 Posted September 14, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 14, 2021 Does anyone know details of the whole story? I knew he was just starting to ride his jumpers again based off IG posts but I never knew why he had been off them. Sad to see. I was hoping for him to make a big comeback. Such a nice guy. Wish him the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad_Footer Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I have never met Zack but he seems like an amazing person. The fact that he can be so upbeat and smiling through all of this is a true testament to his character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
