tm12881 0 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I don't remember which one, as I was only 6 yrs old and my parents dragged me to go. My first day ended quite short as we've gone home after a series of events like this: getting ready, my dad helped me walk side ways up on flat area, he pushed me and I "skied" for 15 ft., fell down, and twisted my ankle. I still have this weird tendon/bone thing sticking out on my right inner ankle. It looks like I have two inner ankle bones. Link to post Share on other sites
