Before heading to the mountains, review 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 and takeoff will directly affect your maneuver and landing.
  2. Look Before You Leap: Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know that your landings are clear, and clear yourself out of the landing area..
  3. Easy Style It: Start small and work your way up.
  4. Respect Gets Respect: From the lift line through the park.
