ISSS Congress Proceedings

Since 1983 all authors who present papers at the meeting have been encouraged to submit their papers in manuscript form to be considered for publication in the Special Technical Publication (STP) that results from the peer review and editorial process of ASTM (www.astm.org), Springer, or Elsevier. Starting with the 2015 meeting in Italy, the ISSS has moved to different platforms of publication so that work can be published in indexed journals for ready reference and accessibility. We believe that this ongoing effort has produced the standard for the world assemblage of a relevant body of literature dealing with safety in winter sports as well as the prevention and treatment of injuries sustained by participants in these activities.

The fundamental goal of the International Society of Snowsports Safety is to improve the sport of skiing and associated activities by reducing the risk of injury and producing better and more enjoyable means of participating in all these winter sports activities. A major accomplishment of each of the ISSS meetings has been the publication of the proceedings of the presentations given during the congresses.
