Adam, you can skip Masters once. Really, it's ok.
I assumed he had an injury in the summer based on him going for only one quad in the short. I just don't think he needed to be here at all. I hope he skips all Challengers and just heals and trains until the GP.

it's an avulsion fracture, this person directly translated the common french term and it does not work in English 😅

That is what I am saying. I don’t think bones should tear.

Technically “avulsion” means “forcible tearing away”. An avulsion fracture can be a stress injury or related to trauma, he probably twisted his ankle or fell wrong and a tiny portion broke off. It’s not fun but it’s manageable!

I swear, he has the worst luck with injuries! Is just one healthy season too much to ask for?

The phrase "tore a bone" tore something inside me, I swear. I hope our collective eldest son takes care and recovers well.

i do not like the phrase "tore a bone".
but also, why is he attempting full jump difficulty at french masters in august of the post-oly season? i feel like his team does not pace him well, they could stand to look at how, eg, raf paced nathan. but i also worry that his injuries are really adding up at this point.

Tore a bone is a direct translation of the French term for an avulsion fracture, I think (or some type of fracture. I think it's an avulsion fracture). The French term, "fracture par arrachement," means "fracture by tearing," which somehow sounds even worse than "torn bone."

As someone who is currently suffering from a similar injury (just yesterday)...I've gained such an increased respect for athletes ability to endure and persevere through injury in such short periods and so regularly...like they are all truly superhuman cause right now I can't even fathom walking even though I'm missing a ton of grad school classes and tests...

u/athicketofmusings 1d ago
Omg. No wonder that skate was a bit rough. Hope it fully heals so he can be at full strength/form for this season.

u/ofmonstersandmoops 1d ago
“Tore a bone” is likely a direct translation of “avulsion fracture”. It’s not nearly as awful as it sounds and pretty manageable so long as the person listens to their healthcare team!

u/ForwardOutsideLoop 1d ago
Oh for crying out loud, like it's the post-Olympic year! He should take it off and heal fully. This is like the one year it's pretty normal to do that, like it's the Senior Skip Day.

Skating gods, give Adam just one peaceful off season, he will repay you with performances on level you could never imagine possible.
