Hey guys/girls , was wondering if somebody could help me with a problem i'm having :/

Whenever I 540 i get sore pains in my leg. above the ankle kinda around the muscle and stuff. Does anybody else get this? If so how can i deal with it? It can become quite painful sometimes and i'm worried it may get worse and stop me from tricking.

So yea any comments would be great thanks everyone!

That sucks. When you say its above your ankle, is it in your calf or shin area?

I always get these pains and it's mainly due to landing a trick low, try not landing heavy and low.

Try conditioning your shins and supporting muscles around your ankles. By doing toe lifts and balancing exercises. But also what Julian said ^ I usually only get this landing hard/low over and over

hey man i don't get this when doing 540 but i get them really bad doing aerials so bad i had to crawl back inside from my backyard while my nextdoor neighbors were watching 'embarrasing'. It hurt so bad i thought i had broken it i put some ice on it and stretched it and the pain went away in about 3 days and i could do all my tricks again apart from side and front it hurt too much for them.
but what you should work on is ankle stretches before and squats every night to get your moves more powerful and high i hope this helped:)
