But there are also all the other skiers going down fast that can hit you.
I tried snowboarding once and just when I was getting the hang of it I fell on some ice and broke my thumb. Nothing life threatening but it required a surgery and I couldn’t do any sports for about 6 months so it was super irritating. After that I decided it’s too much risk even on green slopes and just gave up.
Really unfortunate that this happened to you on your first time… There’s definitely always a possibility for it, you’re right.
I learned when I was a kid so for me it’s like riding a bike and I get in control of it quickly even if it’s been a few years since the last time. But I’m not like, a great skier and don’t try to go particularly fast, I just enjoy spending the day on the mountain.
