Rules? Not really!
Whether you are a skier or a snowboarder, each of the riders will try to find their 'bestest' line possible. There is no marked route, no time limit or test drive. A jury judges the riders in several categories, which include the choice of line, technique, control, and fluidity of the ride.
Thanks for your advice, Nik :)
