we were out at our spot by lake E, and we were all hittin the jump. we were all going no poles to practice our stuff, but before he went, for some reason he asked to borrow someones for his jump. So he hits the jump (with poles) and tries a 7. he lands weird and the pole tip stabs him in the throat! he starts gushing blood when ever he breaths. it seriously punctured a hole in his neck. luckily a ski patrol was passing by and brought him down to the medical station. they gave him a tracheotomy right there. it was too foggy to get a helicopter in there so they had to rush him down in an ambulance and helicopter him out from the nearest town. hes back home now, but he has to get plastic surgery to fix his neck. pretty harsh
