It still makes me watching the above clips sick

Funny thing is that now 3 years later the majority of incidents I have responded to over the years have been concussions.

And yours is the only one I have been to in the park! It can happen anywhere!

The other week a woman was totally out of it having collided with a small boy (apparently - she didn’t remember the crash)

Thanks for the update.
I’m doing another day away from snow. That’s 7days now - the longest I’ve been off snow since 21st June.

Here are the stills I got. Can’t believe I put my video camera down to take still for just that jump!
At least I got the moment of impact. (excuse the quailty, I had barely turned the camera on when he dropped in and I was snowboarding while shooting)

And based on this I bet K2 wishes he could forget even more of what followed that night!
