Freestyle terrain may include Half-Pipe as well as Terrain Parks and terrain features. They are provided for your enjoyment and offer adventure, challenge and fun. However, Freestyle terrain use, like skiing and snowboarding, exposes you to the risk of serious injury and death. Prior to using freestyle terrain, its is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with all instructions, warnings, features, and to follow “YOUR RESPONSIBILITY CODE”:

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

       LOOK BEFOR YOU LEAP: Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area.

        EASY STYLE IT: Start small and work your way up. (Inverted aerials not recommended).

       RESPECT GETS RESPECT: From the lift line through the park.
