So yesterday I was practicing my spins at my local ice rink. Toward the end of the session I did one last camel spin, slipped off of the back of my heel coming out, flew backward, and hit my head hard on the ice. My parents picked me up and brought me to the hospital where I was given a cat scan and a couple of neurological tests. The doctors informed me that I had a minor concussion and a couple of body bruises. My coach thinks that the problem might be that I'm using Mark IV blades rather than Pattern 99's.
Now I'm a bit nervous to get back on the ice. I mean I know it was probably a freak accident and I shouldn't really be worried, but there's always that what if factor. Anybody here have any advice for me? I'd really love to get back to the rink as soon as I get my nerve back.
