Regular footed. Back (landing) hip aches after riding. Other hip's fine. Cause? Cures? Glucosamine? <BR> <BR>Thanks!

Glucosamine!

is your stance too wide? <BR>

I have same problem my back hip and back on my right side hurts. I am goofy footed.

I injured my hip by over-extending it. Took about 6 months to totally heal. <BR> <BR>Start stretching your hip every day and especially before you ride. And exercise it to build the muscles. Lay flat on your back and lift one leg at a time; then to your side and do the same thing. This should help.

I have the same problem, Steven. I think it's old age, combined with that falling out of the sky and sudden stop thing....I've found that proper warm up, followed by visualizing a large Advil bottle at home when the day ends, helps....

I had the same problem for a while, and I'm a young'n. Try adjusting your stance angles a little.

i hear that pain in your hip can be connected to lower back problems. <BR> <BR>My hips (both) used to have a dull ache evertime i got back in the boat from riding. It hurt to the point of not wanting to ride, but then it just went away and i hardly ever have it happen anymore. Guess i got lucky. Could be that I've lost around 30 pounds, and my back and hips take less of a beating.

I too went through the pain in the hip. I found that changing my binding angle slightly made it go away. <BR> <BR>Ride more switch also.

Telln' ya... stretch....and excercise it. Problem solved.

Interesting. <BR> <BR>I don't stretch, and, looking back on it, the problem started when I widened my stance and ducked it out a bit more. <BR> <BR>I do hit the glucosamine pretty religiously. <BR> <BR>Time to adjust the stance and start stretching! <BR> <BR>Thanks.

Maybe the pain of paying for a boat will over come any hip pain,,,,,,,,,ah ah <BR>Andrew
