Thought this was pretty lame by the skier. Maybe someone here knows the skier or saw what happened. Family is stuck with a $14,000 hospital bill now.

shits fucked up. you got to keep it undercontrol.
i remember hearing on here somone got sued for spraying snow at some old dude then banned from pc?
the dude probably thought he was gunna get fucked for an accident and bounced. i hate to say it but i bet the girl took a backside turn and cut off the skier and the skier was the one who got screwed but who knows

One time, one of those very very little groms (who absolutely kill it in the park, but don't know how to ski elsewhere), tried to zip past patrol on the way down to the homerun park.  On his way he cut right in front of me and hit a bump and lost control and landed on my skis.... I was the one that got yelled at..even though he was skiing out of control

But this does suck for that girl.  Probably the skiers fault.  HOwever, just saying, just becuase you were the one that fell down doesn't mean it isn't your fault.
