<Statistics show you're far more likely to injure a leg than any other part of the body, and that most injuries are caused by falling or landing badly after a jump, than by hitting someone else (in which case a head injury seems more possible in a one on one collision).>

Statistics are great, so long as you belong in the "broken leg" group..

Quote : Most injuries (about 75%) for both skiers and snowboarders occur either by falling down or loss of control during a jump

Most of us do fall, more so as beginners but we fall nonetheless and since 15% of those include head injuries you can't simply ignore that figure..
