Waivers seem reasonably effective at preventing frivolous claims based on inherent/unmitigatable risks. You ski into a tree? yo fault. You ski into a padded lift tower? yo fault. You ski into the only lift tower at the entire resort that didn't have padding for some reason? maybe some room for debate (though there would be better examples of negligence)
