All About Skiing & Snowboarding Injuries

Ski and snowboard injuries happen if you fall incorrectly, have equipment issues, turn wrong, or overuse the muscles. Here’s the good news, these injuries can be prevented. If you’re injured, you can recover quickly, getting back onto your skis or snowboard in no time.

Strength training and conditioning play a huge role in injury prevention. While you may use a fitness routine during the offseason, when it comes to snow season, you need to strengthen the muscles used on the slopes before you actually get on the mountain. This prevent fatigue and help the body react to certain movements. Before you put your equipment on make sure it fits right and is secure, as this can cause injury. Always warm-up before you hit the slopes and stretch and roll out your legs afterwards. It’s recommended to wear a supportive brace when skiing or boarding and always use ice on your joints to reduce swelling.
