The game features various modes, including cross races, slalom, one-on-one, and time attack, which serve as qualifiers for the tournaments. Players can earn credits by winning these races to upgrade their snowboard and ski gear. The game also introduces a new button that allows players to crouch, gaining extra speed but limiting movement, and perform tricks in mid-air using the same button. Competitive play is available through split-screen mode against another player, with some equipment licensed from real-world manufacturers.
