TERRAIN PARK EDUCATION

Always start small by working your way up from beginner features and then advancing. Build your skills and conquer one at a time.

Every time you use Freestyle Terrain, make a plan for each feature you want to use. Your speed, approach and takeoff will directly affect your maneuver and landing.

  • Observe all signage and warnings. Scope around the jumps first, not over them
  • Use your first run as a warmup 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
  • Respect the terrain and others
  • 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
  • Learn and know your limits
  • Land on your feet
