A lot of people want to partake in winter sports but are either scared of the high tendencies of sustaining injuries or the risks involved in winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding. There has suddenly been a aggressive promotion on safety issues and public awareness on how to have the best practice standards, especially on safety tips and the use of new improved sport gears that can prevent or reduce the risks involved in winter sports. Researchers have concluded that around 200,000 snow-boarders require sudden room treatments for injuries sustain while exercising in sport resorts. Almost a thousand snow-boarders lose their lives through severe head injuries and speed impacts against stagnant obstacles. Most of the victims of winter sport injuries are within age range 17-50

It's just common sense to use a helmet and do it within your own limits.

I'd think that most people who participate in winter sports are between the ages of 17-50, so it's no surprise that they are the majority injury catagory also.
I think a bit of common sense and research about your course before you attempt it would help a bit. Wear proper protection and expect the unexpected.
