I know nothing of the scapula flap. However, my hubby had the fibular free flap over 8 years ago. He still walks with a slight limp and has some balance issues on wet or icy surfaces. He walks two miles each way to work daily, but it takes him at least 45 minutes. I doubt that even if he could ski before he would be able to do so now. It stinks that you're going through this. Best wishes
