Attraction · operator · neck injury
Yetiballing means rolling down a snow-covered slope inside a large inflatable ball. It is an attraction at winter sports destinations, not a sport with a governing body, and it does not appear by name in policy conditions.

Because the name is missing, the insurer looks at the nature of the activity: you roll down a slope at speed without being able to steer or brake. With a recognised operator, on a marked-out course with a safety net, that is often still regarded as a recreational activity and your travel and personal accident cover simply continues.
The risk is not the ball but the outcome: leaving the course, hitting an obstacle, and neck, back and shoulder injuries from the rolling itself. If it happens outside a marked-out course, after après-ski or with a home-made construction, there is no cover.
The assessment depends on the operator, the course and your own condition.
A licensed provider with safety nets weighs differently from an impromptu activity.
Neck and back complaints are the usual injuries here.
Alcohol and home-made constructions are the familiar breaking points.
What is covered
| Situation | Standard | With extension |
|---|---|---|
| Taking part with a recognised operator on a marked-out course | Provided that | Yes |
| Medical expenses after a neck or back injury | Provided that | Yes |
| Permanent disability | No | Provided that |
| Rolling outside the marked-out course or on a piste | No | No |
| Taking part after drinking alcohol | No | No |
| Liability if you roll into someone else | Provided that | Yes |
What is actually covered is set out in the policy conditions and the insurance card (verzekeringskaart) that you receive in advance.
Two points that keep coming back with attractions at winter sports destinations.
The standard exclusions are mountain sports, air sports, deep diving and speed competitions. Yetiballing does not automatically fall under that, but neither is it named as covered. So describe the activity factually to your insurer and ask for written confirmation before you take part.
This activity is often offered during après-ski. If you take part under the influence, the insurer can rely on Article 7:952 of the Dutch Civil Code: no cover in the event of intent or recklessness. An operator can also be liable (Article 6:162 of the Dutch Civil Code), but your own share is weighed against that.
Insurers weigh these details differently. That is where your saving is.
Customers rate our service on four aspects: personal service, service delivery, availability and the outcome. The reviews are collected and published by NH1816 and come from customers who have actually taken out a policy with Finass Advies B.V. or reported a claim.
This is what people ask us most.
Almost certainly not. Insurers work with categories, not with the names of attractions. Your cover depends on how the activity is classified. So explain factually what you are going to do and ask for confirmation.
Not in the sense of the winter sports module, which is written for skiing and snowboarding. Yetiballing is more likely to be assessed as another recreational activity. Whether the module does anything here depends entirely on the wording.
The operator, if the course or the equipment is unsound or supervision falls short. You usually sign a waiver. That does not exclude everything. Record the situation with photographs and keep the terms of participation.
Your liability insurance then comes into play for the other person's injury. Cover applies only if the activity itself is not excluded and there is no recklessness, for example through drinking alcohol.
Have it established before you leave whether your policy includes this activity.
