It is a common injury and I am looking for some wakeboard specific experience.

I believe that I partially tore it a few years back lifting, but I polished it off wakeboarding a few weeks ago. I tore it on a Saturday and had the surgery that Thursday. They used a bit of an allograph to thicken the tendon (because of the old injury), but my tendon is actually screwed in place. I get my cast off tomorrow and then I move to mobility brace, but I don't know how long yet.

How long will I be in the brace and what will I be allowed to do from week 2-6? What is the time frame to get back on the board? I'm not too worried about the discomfort, but when am I out of the fragile window and can start pounding on it?

I've been told that the recovery is 6-8 weeks, but does that mean 6 weeks til I'm ridding or 6 weeks until I can do 12oz curls with that arm?
