I know nothing
Coming from someone who has part of her rotator cuff permanently detached (not worth the surgery to fix it -- long story), I would go. The part that is going to suck is when you need to use your poles to push you across the flat areas (between trails, off the lift, through the lift lines, etc.). The downhill part will probably be the easiest for you, provided you don't take a major tumble. Just know that going in, if you do seriously fall and tear it worse, you may not have the option of waiting it out to get it taken care of when it's more convenient. But, if it was me, I would go. Actually I am going this winter.
Man you all are nuts... Hope your medical insurance is good
