Such a shitty way for a big mountain skier to say goodbye to their acl

Saw this on Insta and I really hope it never happens to me. Then again, I've never fallen on a rail like he did before his ski got stuck either, so...

I think that's only the 3rd time I've ever seen a ski catch in between the skirting like that including pictures and videos.

Hope he's alright. Sometimes it's that magic trick bullshit that'll get ya.

Would anyone agree/disagree that his bindings were too tight maybe? I know most park skiers have there dins up to a million, and for good reason, but in this very instance his knee 'might' have been saved, or better off, if he'd double ejected much easier? I'm unsure when it comes to this sort of thing so.... Thoughts?

No way of knowing what his din was set at. I'm a big fan of lower din settings. I've been skiing park with a din of 7.5 for 5 years. It only bites me in the ass when I try to tweak mute grabs.

You smart! Save you ass (knees etc.) to ski another day! That did not work to start at the right time.

That is completely irrelevant you can tear it clean through and walk it off. Its the lateral movement that is not possible after the injury.

On another note, a buddy of mine got 40 stitches in his thigh after a rail gouged him on a fall. Successfully sued the mountain for all medical bills.

Well the ACL also plays a significant role in the actual bending of the leg. E.g hyperextension of the leg about knee joint. (back and forth).

Definition of ACL- The cruciate ligaments control the back and forth motion of your knee. The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) prevents anterior (forward) movement of the tibia off of the femur, as well as hyperextension of the knee (a straightening movement that goes beyond the normal range of motion in the joint)

My point was if he did tear it completely, he like wouldn't be standing and walking around afterward due to the pain and instability

Watched it happen to a friend once, and happened to me last year on a back swap. Both times took a solid 4-5 minutes to pry the ski out of the fucking tiny slit, no clue how it fit through there.

That's just not true lol, adrenaline causes your body to decrease the feeling of pain. It's more difficult, but even with a grade 3 acl tear, you're likely still able to walk - it's the lateral and twisting movements that are tricky (source: my doctor, I had a partial ACL/LCL/MCL tear and asked about it when they were unsure about the extent of the tears).

I skied down no problem and was walking perfectly fine after I tore mine for the 2nd time. I bet he definitely did some damage.
