abstract="Survey of a group of injured snowboarders and analysis of their sustained injuries and risk factors in comparison to experience level and equipment. 55% of all injuries occurred within the first 7 days of learning how to ride the snowboard. The affected body region of 36% of all injuries and 53% of the severe injuries was the wrist. The primary mechanism of injury was through low-velocity falls on hard or icy snow, essentially a loss of balance with backward fall onto out-stretched arms leading to hyperextension and trauma to the wrist.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
