Gearing Up: Doc Offers Ski and Board Sale Shopping Advice
If it happens on snow you can bet Tom Hackett has tried it.
An orthopedic surgeon with Vail's Steadman Clinic Hackett also serves as physician for the U.S. Snowboard Team and the U.S. Ski Team and consultant to the Colorado Rockies.

Get gear shopping and safety advice from Dr. Hackett in this Denver Post article.
