A buddy in the ski helmet industry sent this clip from the extreme skiing world. I’ve always suspected that extreme skiiers miscalculate any number of times during a long run, but are usually saved by their extraordinary agility and can recover from precarious situations with grace. Of course, there are also some situations which afford no opportunity for recovery at all. The friend who forwarded me this video assures me that rider, Nick Greener, walked away from this crash and adds, with a well-deserved touch of pride, that he was wearing a helmet from my friend’s company.
