this is an Opinion Right?
I ask because there is no way to know what the path is of someone that is downhill from you... no matter what they are on or class they are in... to suggest that there is a certain percent of users who may be adding risk because of the way their path is shaped down the hill is not a part of the skiers code... nor should it be. There are many hazards on a typical ski areas slopes, some moving downhill, some stationary as well as some going uphill such as snowmobiles and or snocats... Justice is sometimes Stupid, thats why Fin asked this as an Ethical question, and as such when you run into someone downhill from you and wreck their equipment...You NEED to say Sorry! My Mistake
and then you need to Fix or replace what you destroyed !
This of course would never apply to those few who are Victims no matter the circumstances as others are always to Blame...
