The better you are, the harder you fall. Daron Rahlves, star U.S. Olympic freestyle skier, is out of action after dislocating his hip during the Winter X Games prelims.
Rahlves is hopeful that he will heal in time for the Winter Olympics, however, which begin Feb. 12 in Vancouver.
The 12-time World Cup Winner is looking for his first Olympic gold medal. The 36-year-old has competed in three other Winter Olympics. Rahlves crashed on Sunday while going over a bump on a mountain during the Winter X Games.
Rahlves, 36, retired briefly in 2006, but decided to return for one more attempt at Olympic gold.
