That's pretty broken. Like tear your acl if you tried to fix broken.
Beg a fellow skier to borrow skis or rentals would be safer than riding that ski.

Uh....it doesn't quite work like that. That's not something you just fix.

Splint across the break with gauze wrap to immobilize the wound. Get the victim to a hospital as soon as possible.

I think in the hospital, if this happens, the protocol is to simply replace the baby and hope that the parents don't notice

I really think that's too broken but my friend did this.^ worked pretty good then became a rock ski since they gave him warranty pair.
