According to a report issued by the UK’s Debenhams Travel Insurance snowboarders are nearly twice and likely to be injured as skiers.
Snowboarding is a relatively new sport – but now we are seeing just how hazardous it could be, with 34 per cent of snowboarders – compared to 17 per cent of skiers – likely to sustain an injury from their sport,” said Diane Jackson, spokesperson for Debenhams Travel Insurance, which has carried out the research.
She also was sure to remind everyone how important travel insurance is. Hmmm, wonder how “official” this “research” was?
