Makes me wonder, is there a higher rate of knee surgeons in Switzerland than in the rest of the world?
i'd assume not. If you Ski and Snowboard regularly, like all season or every weekend, you'd know well what to do and have the supporting muscles to reduce the risk of injury. Most people that go there for winter holidays just Ski or snowboard a week in a year, but then all day long. That is more injury prone as the lack of training meets an extensive physical stress.
Also people that do so in sports clubs will have specific training in the pre and post season times.
Yeah, but even if the chance per outing decreases a large increase in outings can still bring the average up. I was an avid skier growing up aND hit the slopes every year, the only surgery I've had was from a skiing accident in my early 20s when I was forced to wipe out or collide with another skier and snapped my ACL.
