Last weekend I pulled an ab muscle pretty badly on a W2W 3 attempt gone very wrong. My muscle is still pretty tweaked and painful if I stretch out the wrong way (basically if I fully extend my body/arms, and arch my back a little bit). The killer is when I try to land any kind of jump, and catch an edge so the board stops and I get pulled out away from the board, forced into full extension. Naturally I am eager to get back out there (I will probably take at least a week off), but I don't want to hurt myself worse, and potentially end my season. I was wondering if anybody ever had a similar injury and if they got any relief/protection from one of those back support belts like you can buy from Bart's or Overton's.
