I'm thinking we should all just start straight lining. This carving thing is not healthy for longevity in snowboarding for carvers. Between Sean and David getting smoked from behind in Europe and recent near hits here daily in CO, is it really worth it for the turn? Interested in your thoughts. I think painting a big bullseye on our backs is the only thing left to do. Interested in thoughts, educating the public/patrol? I think it's time that the General Public, those without passes watch a safety video before entering the slopes like if you were going to drive a go kart.
I'm being a bit sarcastic/comedic here as we have all had close calls but seeing videos of good riders getting clobbered or nearly getting clobbered is getting really old. How do we stop it, spread awareness...? I don't know the answer but I'm about to clock myself on Strava doing 70mph in a beginner zone just for kicks and to raise awareness...
