Snowboarder Leaves Path of Destruction Sliding Down T-Bar Line

Genuinely feel bad for everyone involved in this multi person t-bar crash at Kreischberg Ski Resort in Austria.

Of course no one wants to get decked by a snowboarder sliding out of control down a steep icy slope but its not hard to sympathize with the snowboarder who had little to no chance of self-arresting after losing his footing given the terrain and the fact that he had one boot unstrapped.

In all 5 skiers and snowboarders fell victim before the video cut off but there might have been more. Moral of the story: if you aren’t completely confident in your t-bar skills as a snowboarder please avoid lifts like this with steep pitches and boilerplate conditions.
