What is my freestyle ability?

Remarks Parks

Your freestyle ability isn’t the same as your overall skiing or snowboarding ability. Even strong skiers and riders should take time to assess their freestyle skills before entering the parks. To keep things fun and safe for everyone, please read all park signage and safety information before dropping in. Each park entrance is clearly marked with the feature sizes you can expect, choose lines that match your freestyle ability and progress at your own pace.

Feature sizes:

  • Small (S) - Best for beginner freestyle riders
  • Medium (M) – Suited to intermediate freestyle riders
  • Large & Extra Large (L / XL) – Designed for advanced and expert freestyle riders
Top Tip: Start small, build confidence, and step it up when you’re ready. Progression is part of the fun.
