Monday, Dec. 12, 2005:
CR Johnson sustained a serious head injury last Thursday while filming inbounds at Brighton ski area in Utah.

Evan Raps, and several other riders who work with the film company C.R. is a part-owner of, The Bigger Picture, were filming an inbounds jump sequence that involved a rapid-fire succession of riders coming off a small hit — a practice common to ski and snowboard films. Raps, who jumped last in the group, and didn’t actually see the accident, told Freeskier that C.R. was the first off the jump, with Kye Peterson jumping directly after him, somehow coming out of the air and landing on C.R..

“I think it's important that people know C.R. was wearing a helmet when this happened,” says Evan Raps, who was at the scene of the accident. "We all decided to wear them full time this year. Unfortunately the impact was below the helmet brow. This was an accident and a freak thing."

Brighton ski patrol officially reports that the accident occurred inbounds and on the Millicent area of the mountain under the lift. He was air-lifted from Brighton to the University of Utah Hospital after the injury.

Currently C.R. is in very serious condition and being held in the critical care unit at the University of Utah hospital in Salt Lake City. He is in a coma. His mother Lorraine and father Russ are with C.R. in Utah.


from freeskier.com

was in his coma for most of december

I saw CR at the Powder Awards in Aspen. He's doing well- up walking, talking, smiles and accepting awards. He still has a way to go. But from what I get his positive attitude has gotten him far. He still has goals to get back out on snow this season.. . and he could very well acheive it.

i saw him at x games he looks like hes getting better

iyeah i heard he is walkign around and stuff, i hear he is still having porblems with short term memory wich hopefully will come back, supposedly he says he remembers how to ski and getting back on the horse shouldnt be to big of a problem once his monor stuff goes away.

i hope he makes a full recovery, and that would reallly suck to be in acoma. He is a sick skier.

theres always a copy n' paste artist

he didnt stay in aspen for the pipe i didnt think. he was there for the big air but i think he had to go home after that. i cant exactly remember, there was a special at like 1 am after the pipe about his injury and his recovery. good story and he is looking a lot better.

yeah he was sitting with T-HALL

haha its from freeskier magazine

that's insane.

i hope he does.
