Here is a video of a crazy ski jumping accident that happened at a World Cup Event in Zakopane, Poland held in January 2007.

There were strong, variable winds causing problems for the ski jumpers. In this ski jumping video, Jav Mazoch, one of the competiors, seems to be doing fine after taking off from the ski ramp.  Then, a fluke air pocket causes him to lose lift and he takes a terrible fall.

He ended up being in a coma and had some brain injuries but has since recovered and has resumed ski jumping.

In terms of extreme skiing competitions, the Winter X Games is the best known. For the last 8 years, it’s been held in Aspen Colorado and attracts some of the best extreme skiing and snowboarders from around the world.

In this extreme skiing video, Jon Olsson and Simon Dumont compete for the gold in the finals if the Big Air Skiing competition. Jon Olsson does an inverted 1080 while holding a grab the whole time, he also takes off and lands backwards. The second extreme skier, Simon Dumont does a front flip like it’s nothing on the run up to the big air jump. Off the big air jump, he does another front flip, then, while doing the second front flip, does a Superman. Both jumps are executed flawlessly, and the landings are perfect.

—-> FUNNY <—-

Also, for a laugh, check out 1:44 of the video where the camera man falls off the jump, LOL.

I suggest you mute the music on this skiing video. Apart from the music, the ski crashes in this video are mostly of ski racers but it does include a sweet video clip of a skier skiing down an avalanche between two cliffs. There are some funny and embarrassing ski crashes in this video as well as some that just have to hurt.

Here is a video of an accident at a ski aerial competition in Torino, Italy. As the skier takes off, he loses his skis immediately and does 4 flips before he disappears in the horizon.

Some extremes ski tricks in this ski video are performed at this competition. Huge air including many inverted 1080s. The video starts off with some big crashes and then starts showing some of the best ski tricks performed at the competion. Whister is also a huge mountain, one of the best skiing experiances in the world and the host of the 2010 Olympics.

The finals of the final Freeride World Tour 2009 tour. The scenery in amazing out in Verbier with only mountains in sight. The weather is bluebird skis that was made for skiing.

Watch some of the best extreme skiing experts compete for the crown. Competition is based on style, fall line difficulty, and speed.

A guy crashes while going off some cliffs a the US Freeski Nationals. This is a championship where expert backcountry skiers compete showing what tricks they can do off natural obstacles such as rocks and cliffs. They championship was held in Snowbird, Utah. There’s some nice terrain out there.

This guy’s fall looks painful, but some nice skiing none the less.
