The last four winter seasons have witnessed a dramatic increase in the popularity of snowboarding. A series of snowboarding injuries treated at University Hospital, Umeå, predominantly consisted of those sustained by teenage boys, often when jumping or losing balance for other reasons. The upper extremities were the most common sites of injury, 2/3 of these injuries being fractures. The commonest type of lower extremity injury was sprain, and 2/3 of lower extremity injuries affected the foremost leg. To prevent injuries, it is recommended that snowboard bindings should be modified by the introduction of some sort of release mechanism, and enthusiasts should be urged to attend a training course, to use soft-shell footwear and to wear gloves with reinforcement protecting the hand and wrist.
在过去的四个冬季，单板滑雪的受欢迎程度急剧上升。于默奥大学医院治疗的一系列单板滑雪损伤主要发生在十几岁的男孩身上，通常是在跳跃或因其他原因失去平衡时。上肢是最常见的受伤部位，其中三分之二的损伤为骨折。下肢最常见的损伤类型是扭伤，三分之二的下肢损伤发生在小腿前部。为预防损伤，建议通过引入某种释放机制来改进单板滑雪固定器，并敦促爱好者参加培训课程，穿软壳鞋，戴有加固设计以保护手部和腕部的手套。
