Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Hey Guys,

As previous post we are all booked up for march, Am after some advice on knee supports? Hurt my knee last year, caught a bump unawares and had a wierd spin/half fall! Manged to borrow a really nice knee support off my partners ski instructer which allowed me to continue for the rest of th holiday (pretty much pain free!)
Wondered if anyone had any advice/experience of some good knee supports, I need my knee to be held stable and quite firm!?
Have been to my dr to ask his advice but as i didnt have swie flu he wasnt interested!!
Cheers Guys,

I use a neoprene one with velcro straps that you can get from most good sports shops after twisting both my knees over the years. If its a serious enough injury you might benefit from a custom made one. The greatest thing you can do however is to use the next 5 months to get fit - you can taken up to 30% of the pressure off the joint through the muscles. I'd pay the money for a proper private consultation as if you do need some keyhole surgery there is enough time for it to heal if you do it right away.
