The Game

The player controls a snowboarder in one of the six game modes. Two modes ask the player to make figures: "figures" and "tournament", three are focused on the race: " Challenge", "count-la-montre" and "2 players"[8] and finally there is a "training" mode and the options menu.

The goal of the game is, depending on the chosen mode, to arrive the fastest at the end of the track or to collect a maximum of points by making figures.
