We’ve heard about how dangerous the Slopestyle course in Sochi is, and it claimed another victim yesterday during the women’s snowboarding competition. Czech snowboarder Sarka Pancochova took a nasty spill and cracked her helmet during a violent impact on her final run.
Fortunately, the 23-year old Pancochova wasn’t seriously injured and was able to get up and get up and ride off. That’s why you wear a helmet, kids.
