“…This is the only study we are aware of with this conclusion. It is difficult to reconcile it with the voluminous contradictory research documenting the unique dangers posed by terrain park jumps in tens of other studies cited both herein and in[22,23,25,26,27,3,28,29]. Although NSAA releases yearly the total of resort-related fatalities and catastrophic injuries, the raw data on which[48] was based is not even publicly available!…”

Most American snowsport resorts now have terrain parks and decades-long epidemiological evidence correlates terrain park use with injuries. Engineering design of jumps could reduce injuries by limiting equivalent fall heights (EFHs), which indicate dissipated landing impact energy. No evidence refutes making terrain park jumps safer in this way. We discuss case studies illustrating that large EFHs are significant factors in traumatic injuries on terrain park jumps. Standards and design tools for builders can make jumps safer. We introduce a tool that can evaluate existing jumps as well as design jump profiles with safer equivalent EFHs to reduce injuries.
