Hey I Need Some Advice************

Im getting into crazy urban riding, but my knee is ****ed,i ccan walk on it and jump up and down, but my acl and pcl are torn. Was wondering if you guys that are doing it at the moment can tell me how much pain to your knee there is and how much stress is put on your knee in some of those big gaps i see in the videos.
Ill be riding a hardtail, 24" frame
probly dirt jumper3 (5 inch travel) and some fat tires,.any feed back will be greatly appreciated.
thanks. peace.
