my friend blew his out one summer ACL, MCL, meniscus, at the same time, maybe even in July. He snowboarded later on in the winter probably around January or February. I don't think it was his doctor's best wishes but he is an experienced snowboarder and was taking it easy riding i.e. not doing any jumping or rails, mostly just riding with friends and doing a little filming. If you are a beginner snowboarder I wouldn't recommend it because you are at risk to fall easily and awkwardly, but if you are an experienced rider and want to simply go out with friends and take it easy then I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to with a brace if your rehab is going well. I'm sure your doctor will say no though.
