This is not the answer you are looking for ... but it depends on many factors. It depends on your state's law. Also, is the waiver for an injury or stolen equipment? Is it simply printed on the back of a lift ticket, or on a rental form for ski equipment? Or did you enter a ski race and sign a waiver for that specific purpose? In general, waivers do hold up in court provided you made a choice to do the activity and entered into the waiver to do it. But again it depends on the law in your state.
