Anyone windsurf??!! - - Posted by CarolineR (CarolineR), 27 April 2004

Hiya
I had the op 7 weeks ago and just at 90 degree bend and building strength daily in the gym and swimming etc.  I had trochleal and 2 femoral condyle defects repaired.  I know it is a long rehab but if some people are running at 6 months I was hoping I'd be able to windsurf at 5.5 months... Has anyone got any views on this??  (If you are a windsurfer it would be better as you understand the stresses it puts on you!  I will not do any jumping or waves until it is fully better...)
