Competition

As your skiing abilities increase, you will unlock new, more challenging venues and find new freeskiers.
Freeride
Freeride removes all competition pressure, allowing you to fully explore each venue with no time limits or restrictions. This mode is good for learning courses or finding unexplored paths.
Take the run at your own pace, try new moves, or just enjoy a leisurely ski down the mountain without the world watching.
