Minimum he will have a massive bruise.  My son and I were just talking last night about how scary dangerous that sport is.  I think it's irresponsible letting 16 year olds compete in a sport that could easily paralyze them for life on one mistake. They should at least be wearing protective gear. I got my son some very expensive equipment to protect his neck when he was riding motocross.  One important piece is a Leatt neck protector that combines with helmet and shoulder pads to prevent neck compression. IMO these young kids should be wearing them for halfpipe and slopestyle. If Yuto Totsuka had hit head first he'd likely be either dead or a quadriplegic. So many of those pro snowboarders have had extremely serious injuries, including tomato head.
