The ACL protects multiple parts of the knee. She likely shredded every connective tissue.


Does the additional bracing she was wearing due to her tear not potentially mitigate some of this?

Get Peacock for a month, their streaming coverage of the Olympics is awesome. You can watch it live, or on demand after with no ads. I just finished watching everything from today. They only showed one replay of this crash and you couldn’t see much because of the snow being sent in the air. Audio caught her screaming like crazy though - it must have hurt bad.

Honestly….with the amount of damage she’s done in her career she’d be feeling that forever anyway. It does suck to see her run end like this though.

The anti-ACL injury program includes a pamphlet and 17-minute video that are available to individuals, ski clubs and other noncommercial users for $33; call (802) 899-4738.


33 dollars and a 17-minute video that essentially says "stay out of the back seat"? i can tell you that for the low price of 10 bucks

It was more in than than that. And that $33 was from the 90s.

In all my years on the snow, I never had a severe knee injury (head injuries were another matter). I know of at least 1 instance where that video saved my knees.

Most likely she'll have a cadaver repair. They'll remove all of her natural tissue.
