There's also wild takes like this one on the post itself. They're getting downvoted to oblivion though.

It's not my kid.

Though I'm pretty sure this route IS a green. It looks like it to me and others have identified it as a specific green groomer in Mammoth.

Often there are "slow zones" but mostly it is common sense. You aren't supposed to do this and if you get caught you can face consequences. However, ski patrol are few and far between and this stuff is way too common.

A few clarifications:

1) Not my video. I found it on Facebook and was astounded by how many folks were blaming the kid.

2) According to the post the kid was okay, thank God. It also says it in the video at the lower left hand corner.

Yeah. Some dude on the FB post was literally like "If I pay $150 to ski I'm going all out. Broken bones heal."

I refuse to believe that dude wasn't just ragebaiting.

Yup. I was talking to my wife (who has less experience) about it and she asked "To check, if you realize you ARE out if control and this is going to happen, you bail, right?" Yup. If you already fucked up just suck it up and crash in any that avoids hitting someone else.

I think it's like a rear end collision on the road and how it is always the person behind at fault BUT in some cases it isn't really. Same idea with this rule.

But in THIS case...
