Drama on the slopes: skiers and snowboarder injured in the event of an accident!

Madrisella Bahn, 6780 Bludenz, Österreich - On December 27, 2024, a serious skiing accident occurred on Nova Bahn in Montafon, which affected two winter sports enthusiasts. At around 8:50 a.m., the two inexperienced athletes drove down the slopes when the snowboard driver slipped due to insufficient driving skills. In an attempt to find her balance, she put her snowboard across, which had fatal consequences. The skier driving directly behind her could not dodge in time and collided with her snowboard. This caused him to enter a fishing net with his skis and, trapped on it, was thrown down to the valley about 22 meters. As reported, after the fall, the skier remained unconscious, while the snowboarder, who was slightly injured by the departing ski on the face, did not take medical treatment.
