What would you do?

[Offroad]

Since my hip replacement can't ski any longer but I noticed helmets showing up on the slopes when snow boarding became a thing.

I always figured it was because when skiing you tend to slide down, even if you catch an edge you just dive into a slide....but with snow boarding if you are facing the mountain and catch an edge you fall well over 90 probably approaching 150 degrees on to the back of your head....

At least that is what I thought and why I never tried snow boarding ;-)
