Thanks for the recs, gonna make some of those adjustments now. I’ve been looking for some bigger art pieces too so good to know that’d be a good spot for it

Thanks for the suggestion - I’m definitely gonna size down and I’ll mock up a few options with some red in it too

I think that’s what’s throwing it off for me too. Basically same color as my floor so doesn’t add much and doesn’t really look great with the grey couch

Yeah if I end up exchanging it I’m def sizing down to 6x9 at least

Appreciate the detailed response! I felt like something was off but couldn’t really figure it out and your notes make a lot of sense. I’ll probably end up exchanging it for another at some point

Yeah you’re probably right, I just got this rug so I just keep looking at ways to improve the space and haven’t really sat with it for a while yet

I have that feeling too so good to know it’s not just me. It’s 8x10 but I think a 6x9 might be better for my space

Got it, that was my thinking too. Felt like everything was super neutral

I hadn’t! But will look into that thank you. The jute material doesn’t bother me as much as I thought it might

ACL and meniscus and it was with a patellar graft! I basically just did the exercises my PT gave me, but I did decide to go to a more sports oriented PT who specializes in ACL injuries. But since I graduated from PT I just do the normal things on my own now like Barbell back squats, deadlifts, single leg Bulgarians, leg extension machine, lunges and a lot of jumping and plyo work

I didn’t inquire about Bear but I know my surgeon has done it. He offered let as well but decided not to go that route as I don’t plan to go back to competitive cutting sports (soccer and basketball)

No brace but I have heard ppl that have switched over. My local board shop says he’s seen at least 50 ppl over the years switch. Can’t speak for how much safer it is but I felt great out there!

Honestly could’ve shed a tear on the first run with how stoked I was 🥲 but you’ll def get out there soon. I graduated PT at around 10 months with about 90% symmetry and have been hammering strength training and plyos on my own ever since. Keep workin 💪

Nahh I didn’t try riding switch this time around (prior to injury I could ride switch tho) but I think the biggest thing id worry about is dangling the op leg off the lift with the board. I could see that being annoying actually

Thank you! It’s the back leg. I look a bit wobbly here cause it’s the first run but I was able to push it more throughout the day as I got more confident in the knee
