Report of a small, skier-triggered sluff that caught skier and took him for about 200 feet and he was able to get out of it before the sluff descended down onto the apron. He lost some poles and broke a ski but was otherwise OK. He reported that he ripped a toe piece out of his ski, which caused him to stop and his sluff caught up with him.
