Apparently last year the snowboarder "jumped from a catwalk" onto the plaintiff, resulting in a fractured tibia-fibula, fractured humerus and broken ankle for the woman.
The woman sued and the snowboarder, who works two jobs in Snowmass, did not answer. She got a default judgment against him for $796,000.

The case was based upon the snowboarder failing to comply with the Colorado Ski Safety Act because the plaintiff "was the downhill skier, who has the right of way under state law."
Plaintiff has moved to garnish the guy's wages until she is paid.
Boy, this sucks.
