No, she was definitely out cold after the impact. I’ve watched enough of this sport to know what that type of fall looks like.

 

Generally athletes who are out cold don't (obviously consciously) move their hands to try and cover their faces while still falling, and don't move their body in a clearly conscious way even a little.

 

Anyway, not being knocked out doesn't make the fall much better, I mostly hope her back turns out to be ok.

Melissa Peperkamp was the only female snowboarder with a sort of decent first run?

Oh and I missed Kelly Sildaru is competing here. I feel like she's been on the stage forever but of course she's only just 17

Actually there’s three competitors: Sildaru, Burmansson, Gu that have been on the World Cup podium or even won an event.

I've heard of all of them, but Sildaru is the one who's already been in the spotlights for many years.
