All x-rays are clear. She has some back pain, but the doctor says that is to be expected. They are not yet sure when she will be released from the hospital.

Carole Montillet-Carles, of France, who also crashed earlier in the day appeared to be doing well with no major injuries.

There was another crash during training, as well. Allison Forsyth, a Canadian skier who won a world championship bronze medal in 2003, was taken to the same hospital as Kildow for abdominal ultrasound tests and scans of her knee after crashing into the safety netting.

Alpine ski organizers redesigned the Fraiteve course to make it more difficult after racers complained last year at a World Cup event that it was not challenging enough. I bet they’re rethinking that complaint now.
