On a particularly bad fall, she landed in a split position. Good thing she was very flexible...
I'd be crippled for life. But I'm not flexible.
I watched a young gal practice a split fall. She added a fabulous extra element. The skate guard rushed over and asked if she was hurt. She gave him a radiant, flirtatious smile, reached up her arms, and allowed him to lift her back to her feet, flawlessly and effortlessly reversing the motion.
It was so, so graceful. And so, so deliberate.
For a high flexibility young lady the landing area is a large surface area, and it's all soft - hence potentially quite gentle. Especially if she starts out in less than a split position, and slides out gradually into the split.
P.S. I'm not suggesting that any of you who haven't practiced falls start out with split falls, even if you have the necessary flexibility. Start out with slow relaxed falls from a sitting position, maybe on a soft surface, with as much clothing-over-skin coverage. Work your way up. It's fun.
