The dirty tantrum. The good news is that I did finally stick 2 of them but in the process of learning this trick I managed to tear up my arm pretty good. It still functions fine for daily activities but not well enough to board. I've been off for about a week now and am going nuts. <BR> <BR>It doesn't seem to be the "tantrum elbow" like other people have posted though. My pain is more in the bicep and a bit in the shoulder. I've seen people with torn biceps so I don't think that's it. I'm thinking it's probably just a few tendons but wanted to see if anyone else has any input. <BR> <BR>If it doesn't feel better by Monday I'll head in to the old doc and get it checked. I've only got about a month and a half left of season up here and want to get back out there!

I get the same pain from time to time, mine is usually from overuse. If my landings are off for a day I'll get yanked pretty bad, and the arm that hold on the longest is usually my left.

Give it a week, it should go away.

Thanks for the input adam. My right arm is the one bothering me but I ride goofy so it sounds like the same thing. We'll see what Monday brings.

If it doesn't go away in a week, have it looked at. I had the same thing and it turned out to be a torn laybrum(not sure of the spelling) which is in the shoulder. This requires surgery to repair. Hopefully it's not that. That hurts more than a torn bicep.
