im sorry man, I fell bad for you..............well mabey not, but I know that it sucks but come on now. You were skiing, every piece of ski equipment is a weapon. Your skis can be a sword is the edges are sharpened, if not there a nice bat. The poles hurt like a bitch if you use them as a bat and you can stab them with the end. You can do some major damage if you boot stomp them with your ski boots, you could bash some heads in with a shovel. Lets face it, you had all the protection you need.
Oh and p.s. if you ever want to sesh some safer rails in edmonton pm me, me and a few buddys go once or twice over 2 weeks
