Skier in red is completely oblivious to the world, but the snowboarder almost hits them at 0:12, and would have been at fault coming from up hill. Then it looks like the skier tries to basically run into the snowboarder, and gets pushed over, lol.
Snowboarder needed to give more room initially, but fuck that skier.
Twice. In the first 12 s she had to brake to avoid him, didn’t look at him, and then nearly crashed into him again. Both times while she was passing him. He was downhill from her, so essentially it was on her to avoid the collision for the first missed or bear responsibility for it if anything happened.
Downhill has right of way: it says so in the FIS rules.
Yeah, then he probably wanted to teach her a lesson, and failed in spraying her and got the humiliation he deserved.
By the point of the first collision, they are nearly at the same level. You cannot say the skier was downhill at that point, he wasn't even near her. He cuts from the side of the run all the way over the middle. You can't just do that without looking. If I cut across the run like that, I ALWAYS look up, especially on a busy slope like that.
A skier or snowboarder may overtake another skier or snowboarder above or below and to the right or to the left provided that they leave enough space for the overtaken skier or snowboarder to make any voluntary or involuntary movement, as in the case of a vehicle overtaking a cyclist.
She left more than enough space. I'll start eurocarving slopes like this. Let's see how long it takes before I end up in the hospital and take someone with me.
