FOUR MAIN POINTS OF SMART STYLE

Make A Plan

• Every time you use freestyle terrain, make a plan for each feature you want to use. Your speed, approach and take off will directly affect your maneuver and landing.

Look Before You Leap

• Before getting into freestyle terrain observe all signage and warnings.
• Scope around the jumps first not over them.
• Use your first run as a warm up run and to familiarize yourself with the terrain.
• Be aware that the features change constantly due to weather, usage, grooming and time of day.
• Do not jump blindly and use a spotter when necessary.

Easy Style It

• Know your limits and ski/ride within your ability level.
• Look for small progression parks or features to begin with and work your way up.
• Freestyle skills require maintaining control on the ground and in the air.
• Do not attempt any features unless you have sufficient ability and experience to do so safely.
• Inverted aerials increase your risk of injury and are not recommended.

Respect Gets Respect

• Respect the terrain and others (freestyle terrain is for everyone regardless of equipment or ability).
• One person on a feature at a time.
• Wait your turn and call your start.
• Always clear the landing area quickly.
• Respect all signs and stay off closed terrain and features
