skiing/boarding with care and attention

"1 died when 2 people collided - 1 person stationary the other going rather fast."

That is definitely true. It happened in Borovetz about 3/4 weeks ago. Only the person with the helmet on survivedNeutral

Maybe I should also add:

always wear a helmet too then.

1 died about 10th jan. Still more likely to lose your life driving to the airport.
