In my previous post over the past couple days (Ouch!!), I mentioned my abdominal injury, and posted pics (promise, no more update photos!). After thinking about how this happened, I was assuming it was mainly because I am an old fart-weekend warrior, with out of shape abs. Then I remembered the faceplant, and realized I never came out of the bindings. I am assuming this probably had a lot more to do with the injury than my physical condition. Most other times I have always come out on a foreward fall. My question is this: Has anyone else had a similar injury, and was the mechanism the same (bindings not releasing). I don't think I had them real tight, but I have only had them a few weeks, and may have snugged them down a bit more than normal (you can bet I won't do that again!). They have released on other falls with no problem. Maybe this time was just a fluke.
