i sustained an ankle injury that has left me with little movement in my ankle. i have had a hard time with landings due to this, any landing thats flat or somewhat hard is painful. what can i do to minimize the pain during landings?

Land with one foot on the pegs and use your ass to absorb the landing.

I've got ankle issues too! Spend the money on good boots. For me Gaerne SG-12 boots are solid. Sizing runs big. I wear street shoe 8 1/2-9, SG-12 boots size 8 fit perfect. I've tried lots of boots and (IMO) they are the best hands down!

Destroyed my Talus last February. Trying to ease back into riding again. My problem isn't so much when I'm riding but after a few motos the pain starts and by the time i get home I can barely walk. Definitely looking to try ankle savers to avoid another injury like this.
