broken rib is no joke!!! in my first days of learning to jump i sent my kite waaaayyyy to far and got yanked sideways, and somehow my waist harness was positioned just right and the top edge found its way into my 'cage. Fracture!!!! best part was the doc, who said "i know u wont listen to me and stop kiting for the next 6 weeks, so just keep in mind that every time you re-injure it, mark your calendar 6 more weeks till it wont hurt anymore. About 3 months later i involuntary stopped kiting (summertime) and 6 weeks after that, i was healed!!!! that must be why they make so much money, smart asses
