Mountain sport protection
Ski safety refers to practices and equipment designed to prevent injury while skiing.
This includes wearing helmets, adjusting bindings properly, staying in control, and following slope etiquette like yielding to downhill skiers.
Ski resorts post safety codes and mark hazards.
