Ski Patrols employ armored knights to patrol slopes this winter
Ski patrols across the world are employing armored knights to help control record crowds and clamp down on any crime that erupts on the slopes. “We have some of the best security in outdoor sport recreation,” said a World Ski Patrol Association spokesperson. “This is just a new level of protection to make sure out guests remain safe. Worldwide, resorts are seeing an unprecedented rise in attendance. It’s great for business, but we want to make sure expert and novice skiers alike feel comfortable and safe on our slopes. Armored knights are the perfect solution.”
