    Will I be OK

    I broke a few toes today on my lead foot for slalom and well...my lead for a board too, both the bindings are open toes except one slalom, but I rarely use the closed toes slalom do you guys think It would be ok to ride with open toe bindings this weekend or should I stay off the boards and let it heal?

    I think I'll be alright but never been on the water with broken toes

    Ah not much you can do for broken toes, go ahead and have fun. If your lucky, the toes won't feel a thing! Holiday weekend, gotta have fun. Here is a idea. Ever tried wake skating? No bindings required there.
    I don't want to go to work, take me wake surfing instead!

      Buddy tape the toes up and suck it up putting on the bindings and you will be fine. The worst part will be getting in and out of your bindings. The buddy taping of the toes will give them more support than being by themselves.

        If you can't board/ski.. you can always surf!!! (or wakeskate like scoot said)
        If you ain't falling.. you ain't trying hard enough..

          My son has been wakeboarding with his broken arm, but he does have a cast on.

            u cud try knee boarding :P just be careful, if u fall bad, u will be wrecked!! with ur toes already broken they cud get permanently damaged. i wouldnt go out tbh, if u dont rest it u cud have problems with it for years and wen u get older arthritis cud kick in ruinng your boarding. bt thts just my opinion

              Just cut your toes off, it's not like you need them anyway!

              Just kidding. I'd tape them, and ride.

                Not much you can do for broken toes, tape it up but make sure you tape the broken toes to a tow thats not broken for support... As far as boarding you will know your limits...

                  Tape 'em together and surf. My wife did this last year, although she only broke her little toe.

                    If taping to another toe is not do able, then tape a Popsicle stick to the bottom of your toe would also work for a splint. Not the most comfortable but better than nothing.

                        Will you be ok?

                        Man up and ski. A little pain never hurt anyone.

                            had a broken toe for 6 weeks and still ran 120 miles a week on it. You will be fine.
