Do you know the most common injuries in moguls?
Knee injuries are the most common type of injury in mogul skiing, but they are not at all the only kind.
Injuries usually occur from falling after a jump. It is not just the knees that are vulnerable in mogul skiing, but also the hips and back. Mogul skiers are also susceptible to concussions. Arm injuries such as sprains and fractures are not uncommon, as athletes may fall on an outstretched arm.
A helmet is a good investment to prevent head injuries. Don’t forget to use it!
