    Main Results:

    • Pediatric skiing injuries remain a significant health problem.
    • Injury rates are disproportionately high in young teenagers.
    • Tibial fractures are a common occurrence in this age group.

    Conclusions:

    • Further development of child-specific ski binding systems is essential.
    • These systems must accommodate diverse sizes and skill levels.
    • Greater attention to the unique musculoskeletal requirements of young Alpine and Nordic competitors is necessary, particularly in organized events.
