Yup, a good solid punch to the face / head can, and most-likely, will break things in your hand and / or forearm.

Wonder what the whole story was there. Not that there's any reasonable excuse for that, but what, beyond the decline of Western Civilization would bring about an idiotic fight like that?

SIMPLY too many assholes in the world--sorry but true!

Some people have really bad attitudes..but the few times somebodies crashed into me..I've been pretty freaking pissed off...Incidents should be reported to the Ski Patrollers it's their job to handle out of control skiers and riders...obey the code..

It is? It's not my job to break up a fight. That's what cops are for.

I'm sure we could have a 200 reply thread within 48 hours speculating on what that was about.... :lol:
Ha...really a snowborder took out a skier at about 10mph. the skier got up and just attacked the snowborder.....once they stopped the skier took one last sucker punch. They were both just out of control.

Nice hit? That was a freakin sucker punch.

I am gonna disagree. He was trying to walk away and the other guy wouldn't stop. He solved it. the sucker punch was the third guy in who came in kicking. If there is a fight, let them fight, don't have you buddies jump in and help.

Regardless of what happened in the fight, they're both idiots for letting it get to that point in the first place.

I doubt they know what powder of the natural kind is....I think they'd rather spend the day indoors with the manufactured kind...

fighting is rarely a good idea


fighting while skiing is never a good idea, especially when you think about the kind of damage a ski boot could do to someone's dome.

I thought they were messing around at first. I have seen a few pushing matches before, never that physical.
