Look Before you Leap - Easy Syle It - Respect Gets Respect

Smart Style Full Video 2007


 



We believe the “Smart Style” message along with existing safety messages; will help to heighten the sense of education and awareness about the proper use of terrain parks in a way that is not hard to deliver, or for that matter to digest. We have compiled some useful artwork, tools, signage and suggestions that we hope mountain resorts will be able to implement into terrain park operations. You will find those resources on this website.

Smart Style Explained

There are three main messages that are associated with Smart Style:

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

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

03) RESPECT GETS RESPECT
