I completely agree the fault in this accident is entirely on the people involved and not on winsport, i also think winsport as the operators of a potential dangerous track need to try to do everything possible to ensure a event like this doesn't happen again.
Right now it is in the public consciousness so I doubt anyone will be attempting the run again, however, 10 years from now once the memory has faded I could see someone chasing the thrill again.
Maybe some solutions include removing the barrier completely from the track when not in use. and/or a more significant barrier at the top with signage that not only indicates the track is closed but that the track is blocked as well.
Let's be honest if you've made the decision to sneak in after hours and see a sign that says track closed you're gonna think no kidding and ignore it. If you see a sign that says track closed, danger obstruction on track or something of that ilk, well you're going to take that sign a hell of a lot more seriously.
