It usually takes Karma a bit longer to catch up with you...
I obviously don’t agree with her politics, but deciding to compete despite having an ACL injury, and thus an unstable knee took a lot of guts - although also very unwise. I wish the best for her, including an epiphany about how lucky she and all of us are to live in this nation.
She’s never been stable.
It looks like the spill was caused by the ski pole in her right hand hitting one of the flag sticks, sending her out of control.

Now she will have to complain about Trump from her wheelchair.
Geez. Tape her up so she can get back on the slopes.
Well, the para-Olympics are coming up.
She was stupid to race on a ruptured ACL. That’s hubris to the max. Her ski days are over and good riddance.
I don’t know of her but:
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump
U.S. Olympic Skier, Hunter Hess, a real Loser, says he doesn’t represent his Country in the current Winter Olympics. If that’s the case, he shouldn’t have tried out for the Team, and it’s too bad he’s on it. Very hard to root for someone like this. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Anyone who would “date” Tiger Woods after revelations about his sex life enjoys “living on the edge.”
When she realizes she has hit the wall will be really ugly.
Who could’ve seen her leg giving out a week after a torn acl. Selfish c&*t. She took the spot of someone who might have had a better chance. Why did they let her compete only a week after a torn acl???
Her left hand / pole snagged the course flag in mid air. Huge and serious mistake.
She’s competitive she’ll be in the paralympics in soon
Why are they calling a screwup on the slopes, “a crash”. What did she crash into?
That girl needs to retire and coach. 41 is way too old for Olympic downhill running. I hate to see her cripple herself.
Dont care either way.
Would another American skier taken her spot if she hadn’t gone? If so, maybe not a great decision for the team.
