Snowboarding

Have you ever heard of snowboarding or a snowboard? Snowboarding is a very fun activity that usually happens during the Winter in Wisconsin or some people go to other states where there would be snow during the summer time in Wisconsin. Although many people think snowboarding is a very fun activity 19.4 males have at least one wrist injury a year JUST from snowboarding and women have 26.4 wrist injuries. I wonder why women would have a more percentage? A ankle injuring is 2.13 more constant on a snowboarder more than someone who skis. I feel snowboarders have more ankle injuries because their feet are attached to the board an so if they flip or fail their ankle is hurt more, and when people who ski fall their feet would just pop out. 13.4 for snowboarders usually will have a little concussion or a major concussion once every year. As you can see already that snowboarding is a very dangerous activity but also is very fun if you are VERY careful.  Just be careful on the slopes if you are a snowboarder or even someone who skis.
