Common Injuries covered by Ski Insurance

Skiing can be a hazardous sport if not practiced correctly. Most skiing resorts UK only, in Europe or in the whole world are based in the mountains, which have lots of hazards. Therefore wearing the necessary protective equipment is essential, including helmet, gloves and any other protective clothing needed when attacking the freezing temperatures. There are many common injuries skiers suffer, for example 40% of skiing injuries are to the knees. When skiing you find yourself twisting and turning your body and in particular your legs and knee joints at regular intervals which can lead to major injuries. Skiing can be an exhilarating sport but can also be hazardous, meaning insurance is essential, never more so than when abroad in an unfamiliar environment.
