17 freshly groomed and crafted obstacles are at your disposal each and every day. The Fun Run with easy obstacles is ideal for beginners or those keen to master the big kickers. The Pro Line: bigger kickers, higher speeds, more airtime. Those who take off here should have already spent some time practising hard for their ‘pilot’s license,’ so to speak. On the rail line, beginners and advanced snowboarders practice side by side to master obstacles of different heights, lengths and gradients designed to put boarders’ sense of balance to the test.
