Practically every competitive skier is skiing on skis given by the manufacturer.
But the competitors arriving for the competition are not generally handed the skis to use on the day just for that event as they might be say in a ad hoc local competition for which a sports shop might loan skis.

I might understand that argument if in some way people were strapped to the round of cheese and were 'cheeseboarding' :^O :^O Heaven forbid if it was made too crumbly and fell apart, bringing them to a sudden grinding halt at speed!
But they are not attached to the cheese - merely running after it, and if some loons want to race down a steep hill at a speed beyond their own control chasing after cheese round or anything else that will roll, I fail to see how the cheese and its maker should be held responsible. To my mind it's the chasers' own responsibilities as to how much they will 'go for it'.
All that we are is what we have thought.
