Smart Style

4 MAIN POINTS OF SMART STYLE

1. Make a Plan
   - Every time you use freestyle terrain, make a plan for each feature you want to use
   - Your speed, approach & takeoff will directly affect your maneuver and landing
2. Look Before You Leap
   - Before getting into freestyle terrain observe all signage & warnings
   - Scope around the jumps first not over them
   - Use your first run as a warm up run & to familiarize yourself with the terrain
   - Be aware that the features change constantly due to weather, usage, grooming & time of day
   - Do not jump blindly & use a spotter when necessary
3. Easy Style It
   - Know your limits & 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 & in the air
   - Do not attempt any features unless you have sufficient ability & experience to do so safely
   - Inverted aerials increase your risk of injury & are not recommended
4. Respect Gets Respect
   - Respect the terrain & others
   - One person on a feature at a time
   - Wait your turn & call your drop/start
   - Always clear the landing area quickly
   - Respect all signs & stay off closed terrain and features
