Mogul piste · knee injury · competition exclusion

Mogul skiing and your insurance

Mogul skiing takes place on a marked mogul piste and is therefore included in ordinary winter sports cover with most insurers. The jumps and competition involvement are the sensitive point.

In brief

Mogul skiing is skiing down a mogul piste: short turns, plenty of impact and heavy loading on the knees and back. The terrain is marked and managed, and that is precisely what sets it apart from off-piste disciplines. Recreational mogul skiing therefore usually falls within the winter sports cover on a travel insurance.

The exceptions are in the detail. If you jump the kickers built into many mogul pistes, the sport moves into the category of freestyle, which many policies exclude separately. The same applies to competitions and the training for them and to mogul fields off the marked piste. Ask in writing before departure what is included.

What is covered with mogul skiing?

Three things determine your cover: the winter sports module, the type of terrain and whether you jump or race.

In advance

Arrange winter sports cover

Without that module, skiing in any form is excluded.

  • A separate module or winter sports days
  • Also for a single week
  • Health insurance remains the basis
On the piste

Marked terrain

Within the piste you are insured, outside it usually not.

  • An open, marked mogul piste
  • Jumps over kickers assessed separately
  • Off the piste counts as freeriding
In the event of injury

Knee, back and transport

Call the emergency assistance centre before you incur any costs.

  • A guarantee of payment for the clinic and surgery
  • Adapted transport home
  • Keep invoices and the medical report

What is covered

SituationStandardWith extension
Medical expenses after a knee injury on the pisteYesYes
Recreational skiing on an open mogul pisteYesYes
Jumps over kickers in the mogul pisteProvided thatYes
A mogul field off the marked pisteNoProvided that
Competitions and training for themNoProvided that
Rehabilitation treatment without valid health insuranceNoNo

What is actually covered is set out in the policy conditions and the insurance card (verzekeringskaart) that you receive before you take out cover.

Where things go wrong in practice

Two points that determine whether your policy pays after an injury.

Travel insurance pays as a supplement, not instead

Medical expenses abroad run first through your basic health insurance; the travel insurance tops up what comes on top of that, such as the difference in rate, recovery costs and repatriation. Without valid health insurance, little is left. A knee injury on a mogul piste often leads to surgery and adapted transport home: have the emergency assistance centre in advance arrange that.

Jumping and racing are different risk categories

As soon as you use the kickers in the mogul piste, the policy speaks of freestyle or acrobatic skiing, and that is excluded by many insurers. Taking part in races, the training for them and practice for payment are also standard exclusions. Even where the cover remains in place, Article 7:952 of the Dutch Civil Codestill applies: with reckless conduct, such as skiing on a closed piste, the claim falls away.

What does your premium depend on?

  • Risk class of the discipline: with or without jumps
  • Recreational or in competition: competitions call for a tailored solution
  • Destination: the Alps or outside Europe
  • Duration of the trip: a single week or the whole season
  • Sums insured: above all for injury and repatriation
  • Age and household composition: alone or with the whole family

Insurers weigh these details differently. That is where your saving is.

Frequently asked questions

This is what people ask us most.

Is mogul skiing a risk sport for insurers?

Usually not. It takes place on a marked piste and therefore counts as ordinary winter sport. Only with jumps, competitions or mogul fields off the piste does the sport move into a higher risk category and an extension is needed.

Does the winter sports module cover my knee operation?

The travel insurance pays medical expenses as a supplement to your basic health insurance. Without that basis there is in practice no cover. Follow-up treatment in the Netherlands runs through your health insurance, not through the travel policy.

What if the piste is closed because of avalanche risk?

Then you do not ski there. If you do it anyway, the insurer relies on recklessness under Article 7:952 of the Dutch Civil Code and on the exclusion for terrain off the open piste. Rescue and recovery costs are then at your expense.

Are my skis included?

Theft and transport damage are often covered by the luggage section, with a limit per item. Breakage while actually skiing is usually excluded. For hired skis the hirer's arrangement applies; check the deposit and the excess under it.

Heading for the mogul piste?

Have it recorded before departure what is included. We find out which insurer accepts jumps and competitions.
