Ski Patrol tricks of the trade: standing takedown. Although this is no longer an "approved" OEC skill, there may be situations where this is the best or only way to safely get someone from standing to supine. Like the nice lady I had on an ambulance call once upon a time with a dislocated hip (artificial joint replacement popped loose) standing at her kitchen sink. Just a tool in the toolbox. It works and is not harmful when done carefully and correctly.
