Skiing and snowboarding are some of the most popular wintertime activities in mountain towns across the United States. This is for good reason—skiing and snowboarding give families time to get out in the open air and speed down mountains in beautiful locations, all while getting a great workout.

Luckily, though, you don’t need to go through this stressful experience alone.

COMMON SKI & SNOWBOARD ACCIDENTS
As mentioned before, skiing and snowboarding are very popular winter activities. In fact, researchers at Johns Hopkins University concluded that around 10,000,000 people participate each year. However, the dark side of our love for the snow is that around 600,000 injuries are reported annually.
The accidents that cause these injuries can be divided into a few categories. First, accidents between a skier and another skier or snowboarder is perhaps the most common. In addition, skiers and snowboarders, especially those who are inexperienced, run the risk of colliding with a tree or lift pole.
Sometimes, accidents can be the result of the resort itself, however. If you rented your equipment and it fails on you due to some malfunction or defect that should have been corrected, the resort may be liable for your injuries. Similarly, your accident could have been caused by a faulty chairlift or poor teaching from an instructor.
Chairlift Injuries
The lifts and machinery used at ski slopes are usually safe when properly managed and maintained. However, this is not always the case. Some people suffer injuries when lifts malfunction, when someone uses the lift improperly, or when the victim’s injuries are caused by contact with other machinery. Resorts should only hire trained professionals to operate machinery and should routinely check it for defects. If you’ve been injured in an accident that involved ski lifts or machinery, call our ski accident attorneys to learn more.
Ski vs. Snowboard Accidents: Which Injuries Happen More Often?
According to the National Ski Areas Association, snowboarders are 50-70% more likely to get injured on the slopes but are about 30% less likely to be killed compared to skiers. Additionally, most skiing deaths occur after collisions with fixed objects where someone is moving at a very high rate of speed. Snowboarders also suffer more wrist, shoulder, and ankle injuries.
Common Ski Accident Injuries
In the same way, there are a few injuries that accident victims Knee injuries are very common. In addition, because skiers will often put out their arms in an attempt to break their fall, shoulder injuries, like dislocations or fractures, are very common as well. Snowboarding and skiing accidents also result in a fair amount of head and brain injuries. Collisions with another skier or object, as well as contact with the ground in a fall, can deal substantial blows to the head and lead to concussions or other types of traumatic brain injuries.
What Should I do After a Snowboarding or Skiing Accident?
While skiing and snowboarding are meant to be fun pastimes, accidents happen. A snowboarding or skiing accident can be very traumatic and leave you wondering what to do next. To keep yourself safe and safeguard your potential claim, it is important to follow a few key steps:
1. Seek Medical Attention
After snowboarding or skiing accidents, ski patrol will likely be on hand to triage the situation and offer assistance. Still, you should seek medical attention immediately after a snowboarding or skiing accident. Even if you don’t think you’ve been hurt, certain injuries may not appear until later, and talking to a doctor can help mitigate any issues. Also, seeking medical attention quickly may help prevent another party from proving that injuries aren’t severe or related to the accident.
2. Document the Snowboarding or Skiing Accident
After any sort of accident, it’s important to gather as much information as possible. You’re probably wondering how to gather this information, which must be done quickly in order to keep a proper record of the accident
- Write down the location of the accident.
- Take as many pictures as possible of the location, any injuries, and your surroundings. Be sure to document any important signs as well.
- Get the contact information and address of the person or people involved in the crash with you.
- Flag down any witnesses and obtain their personal contact information, as you may need their statements later on.
As you’ve probably heard before, a picture is worth 1,000 words, especially after a ski or snowboarding accident. Any evidence you obtain could help immensely in a claim for damages, so remember to document the scene thoroughly.
3. Contact a Team of Ski & Snowboard Injury Lawyers at a Personal Injury Law Firm
When it comes to seeking compensation for your injuries, the legal process can be rather complex and somewhat terrifying. Having an experienced ski accident lawyer on your side may mean the difference between receiving enough money to get you and your family through a difficult time and receiving nothing.
“Skiers that have been involved in an accident on the slopes should call us because, one, they’re hurt, and two, they usually have no idea where to start,” said Joe Caputo, partner and ski accident lawyer at Zinda Law Group. “Not only do you need to investigate how this happened, who’s responsible, and make sure that that’s dotted and crossed, but we also have to do some digging to find out if the person who hurt you has the right type of insurance that’s going to provide the right type of coverage.”
Speaking with an experienced attorney at a personal injury law firm soon after your accident makes it easier to pursue maximum compensation and see meaningful results.
Ski Laws
The exact laws that will govern your case differ from state to state. Below is a summary of some of the similarities and differences between a few different jurisdictions.
Who is at fault in snowboarding or skiing accidents?
Generally, skiers and snowboarders have a duty to stay in control and avoid other people or objects. In fact, people ahead of you have the right of way, so they must be avoided. Given the duty of care every skier assumes when out on the slopes, an injured person may pursue a claim against individual skier rather than the resort itself.

Texas
While there aren’t many ski mountains in Texas, Texans love to travel throughout the United States to find some of the best skiing available. We’ve represented many Texans dealing with ski accidents that occurred out of state.

Colorado
A lot of the applicable law in the state of Colorado comes from the Ski Safety Act (SSA), which was passed in 1979. One of the things that the SSA did was to establish that skiing is an inherently dangerous sport, and that skiers assumer some of those risks of skiing accidents. However, this does not mean that you have signed away all of your rights when you strap on your boots. Negligent ski area operators can still be held liable for injuries if they negligently caused them. Colorado skiing law also establishes that skiers must ski within their ability and pay attention to those around them. Uphill skiers owe a particular duty to downhill skiers as well because they have a better line of vision.

New Mexico
The law in New Mexico is similar to the law in Colorado. They even have a similarly titled law—the New Mexico Ski Safety Act. This law imposes similar duties on the individual skiers, and also establishes the requirements that operators carry insurance and warn visitors of certain risks and dangers when it comes to skiing accidents.

Arizona
People from outside of the Grand Canyon State may assume that it is entirely desert, but Arizona is actually home to a few different ski areas. The relevant statute in the state states that skier accept the risk of changing snow conditions, which could be important in a warmer state where snow melts more quickly. However, it also outlines similar duties for skiers to watch out for other skiers and for resort owners to maintain their facilities in a safe and responsible way.

California
For skiers in California, it is important to understand that it is against the law to enter closed areas—skiers must stay on marked slopes. In addition, California imposes a requirement similar to automobile accidents in which it is against the law for a skier to leave the scene of an accident that they were involved in.
Wisconsin
Wisconsin’s law sets forth the general requirements that skiers pay attention to those around them and follow all of the posted signage. However, interestingly, Wisconsin included a special provision in their law that ski patrol members are immune from liability unless they were acting recklessly or intentionally.
Michigan
Michigan’s Ski Safety Act is actually the oldest of its kind in the country. It establishes that skiers and ski area operators both have certain duties to fulfill, and that skiing activity is subject to the oversight of a ski safety board.
New York
It is important for skiers in New York to understand that the applicable law mandates that they read the “Warning to Skiers” section on their tickets. In addition, skiers need to make careful decisions, taking into account their level of expertise as to how they should ski and on what slopes.
HOW DOES A SKI ACCIDENT CASE WORK?
In a situation where another skier ran into you, the case will likely come down to whether that skier can be held liable for your injuries. Skiers owe a duty of care to other people on the slopes, and as mentioned before, uphill skiers owe a particular duty to downhill skiers. If the skier who collided into you was skiing negligently, whether it be out of control or above their skill level, they may be liable for your injuries. Interestingly, injuries resulting from injuries on the slopes are often covered by homeowner’s insurance policies.
What is the Cause of Action in a Ski Accident Case?
Negligence is the most common cause of action in personal injury cases, including skier injury cases. Individuals must exercise reasonable care in their actions to ensure no harm. For example, the law imposes a duty to exercise caution when driving a roadway motor vehicle or a snowmobile. In the skiing context, the meaning of “reasonable care” is largely defined by the Ski Safety Act. Showing that another party is liable for negligence requires proving:
1. A legal duty was owed by the defendant to the plaintiff.
2. The defendant breached that duty.
3. The plaintiff suffered an injury.
4. The plaintiff’s injury was caused by the defendant’s breach.
Suing the Ski Resort
Ski resorts, though they are excused from some liability by statute, can still be liable for injuries in certain cases. For example, if they negligently failed to mark dangerous spots or if they rented you faulty ski equipment without bothering to check to make sure that it was safe, then it is possible that they could be held liable. These sorts of cases can be difficult due to the fact that skiers assume certain risks of skiing, but resorts are not immune from liability in the event of a skier injury.

Filing a Claim
Typically, an injured ski accident victim would consult with an injury lawyer file a claim against the negligent party’s homeowner or renter insurance policy. The Ski Safety Act prescribes a statute of limitations for ski accidents, which creates a time limit for a claim for compensation to be filed. In Colorado, the statute of limitations for ski accidents is two years. After this period, you cannot file a case seeking compensation. Once the two-year countdown begins (date of the snowboarder or skier injury), speak with an attorney as soon as possible so that they have plenty of time to preserve your claim and prepare your case.
I had the best experience with the Zinda law Group! Shivangi Was the the most professional and caring attorney anyone could ask for! She did everything in a timely matter and answered all the questions I could ever think of. Her paralegal, Danielle was always there for me throughout the entire process.

Thank you Michael and everyone that helped with my case, yall are the best!! My attorney was Christina , she and her team gave me the best outcome for my case .I am giving an honesty review at first I was very upset because I kept getting moved around and I never knew who I was talking to because they switch attorneys and kept changing my paralegals.. I was going to go with another law firm but Christina helped me with my case from then on out and she worked around my schedule to talk to me which I appreciate. Also my last law firm took 30 percent, and this one took 33 percent which I wasn’t to happy so just a heads up.

Joh Harper, Priyonka Bhikha, and the rest of the team gave my case a quick and satisfactory conclusion. The attorney, Mr. Harper did an absolutely amazing job keeping me on the same page as far as the case goes. Honestly, if anybody is hurt in a car wreck or another personal injury case, I WILL STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU SPEAK TO THEM. I was in a motor vehicle collision about two years ago. From the minute I picked up the phone to speak with a representative to the case finally settling, it was a great experience. I worked with Burgess Williams and his team (Kathy, Ryan, and Linda) throughout the process. They were all very professional and helpful when I needed them the most. Great Firm. I was in motorcycle accident- T-boned at a full stop with my daughter riding on back. Zinda's team was instantly responsive. Christina was very compassionate, organized and scheduled time before every legal event to discuss goals and overview. The process was 2 years but during that time the lawyers and staff (John and Shane were also great) were always available and understanding. The team is focused on doing what is right and by the book. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who is suffering from a motorcycle accident. Jason Aldridge and his paralegal Mara did an absolutely amazing job on my case. They were very responsive to all emails, calls and even texts. They treated me with dignity and respect from start to finish. I never once felt like my case was at the back of the list or anything. Not only did they explain and walked me through everything, they got me the help I needed and a final outcome over what I had expected. I would highly recommend this law firm, Jason and Mara to anyone seeking legal assistance. Highly Recommended-100% Satisfied!.From the initial phone call I felt confident I chose the right firm. They explained the process and I was always in the loop, even when we were at a stand still. Very grateful I was quickly referred to them by a friend who had a similar case. Both of us are happy with the end result. Thank you! My team of lawyer were very professional and communicated extremely clearly. They kept me updated on their status and did not make me worry at all about my situation. They explained everything to me very well and put things into simple terms for my understanding. I am very satisfied with their performance. I would recommend them to anyone that's been involved in an accident and feels skeptical in engaging an attorney.When one gets into an accident, you're traumatized, confused, angry and helpless.That was me last year, getting all kinds of advice becomes your next norm, to use or not to use an attorney.I was in so much pain from my injuries but at the same time knew I had to act fast.I called Zinda Law Group for consultation, they took my case seriously and treated me with respect, they were very professional and understanding.Elizabeth, kudos to you, you're true to your word, Integrity should be your last name.Jason Aldridge my attorney went to work immediately, he assured me that all be well and I should concentrate on my healing and he will do the rest. Thank your Sir, You did just that.His team, Mara, Zuleyma and Andrew, they all become my support system, so professional and lots of respect in each and everyphone call or email. Thank you guys.I would recommend anyone to use Zinda Law Group. I honestly loved not dealing with the hospital bills while I was recuperating. It gave me peace of mind going through this process and Zinda took care of everything. They found awesome health providers for me and haven't had to worry about anything while they've been taking my case. I've been well informed, communicated with, responded to and understood by Zinda. They have been efficient and effective while working on my case and I'm so glad I choose to go with this law firm. When I was injured in a car accident in March of 2020 the insurance companies were not concerned with my well being. I called Zinda Law group & spoke with Reagan, who went over my concerns & later had Jono contact me. After reviewing my information with Jono my case was immediately put in motion. I worked mainly with Sam Thomas who truly was a blessing to me, he was very supportive & genuinely concerned with my well being, everything wasn't simply about the case it was about me being healed & getting the proper treatment that I needed. Sam was also emotionally supportive when I went through several losses in my family & is a great friend. In all everyone was extremely supportive & all worked for me which was quite a different legal experience for me from Law groups in my past. I was well supported, always informed, treated with respect & made the priority in all decisions. Zinda Law Group made sure I was compensated completely & that I didn't have financial stresses over hospital bills after all was said & done. Sam, Katrina, Mary Catherine, Reagan & Jono I just want to thank you & all of Zinda for the incredible experience & the wonderful caring people that you all are, you are truly Golden in your field. I am so glad I got in touch with Zinda! My car accident occurred just 4 days prior to moving, during the busiest week of the year at my job, and just a week before the quarantine was declared a new reality for all of us. Everyone at Zinda remained persistent, supportive, and most of all advocated for me throughout such a chaotic time. I’ll always be grateful for the care they took to make sure my health and well-being were taken care of. So super grateful to know that a split second mistake someone else made doesn’t have to dictate my life. Thanks! My experience with Zinda Law Group was better than expected. After an accident that totalled my car, I reached out and was paired with a wonderful attorney. She communicated frequently and responded to my calls and texts in a timely manner. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. I was kept in the loop during every step of the process. I would call Zinda Law if I ever need this type of support again. I had an excellent experience working with the attorneys at Zinda Law Group! They were knowledgeable, professional and patient. They walked me through every step of the long process of getting treatment after my car wreck and kept me updated with timeframes and next steps. I would absolutely recommend anyone working with them! I was referred here by a family member. Our lawyer jason and his team did and amazing job. They kept me updated in everything made sure I understood what was going on. My son was hit by a van in the hospital jason came right over. He's awesome so much down to earth straight forward. I would recommend him and his firm to everyone and I have thank you zinda but most of all thank you Jason for being there for us for being a friend Zinda Law Group was recommended to me from another satisfied client and I certainly received excellent service. The attorneys and staff are very proactive with communication and I knew every step of the way what was happening on my case. I never felt pressured with decision making and they went above & beyond to answer questions with satifactory explanations. This is a very professional group of attorneys & support staff. In addition, they were willing to meet me at a location more convenient for me. I appreciated their concern for my time. Could not speak highly enough of the firm. I was involved in my first accident and thankfully had Zinda Law Group supporting me through the scary time. Jono took care of me every step of the way. He made me feel like I was a priority through the entire process. A big thank you to Jono and the rest of the Zinda crew! ‹

SKI ACCIDENT COMPENSATION
Skiing and snowboarding accident compensation can be difficult to calculate from the outset of a skiing personal injury claim, but it does follow some basic principles. Compensation is typically made up of economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages are things like medical bills, lost wages from being unable to work, and damage to personal property. Non-economic damages include the pain and suffering that you experience as a result of your injuries, and this can be both physical and emotional suffering.
