Good article here on exactly what happened, dispels a lot of the press hysteria.

1. Low speed
2. Happened on a small ungroomed rocky flat area between 2 easy groomed runs.

Lot of speculation about how he was going fast "off piste" as if he was skiing extreme steep back country or something. Complete BS. Just a bad fall in a mellow area.

If you ski or board a lot it is obvious what happened here. Just a freak low speed accident in transition from easy groomed slopes to ungroomed snow with hidden rocks.

Other news seems condition is stable or at least not worsening. Good luck Michael.
