| Park Tips |
SMART STYLE:
1.) Look Before You Leap - Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area.
2.) Easy Style It - Start small and work your way up. Inverted aerials are not allowed at BBMR.
3.) Respect Gets Respect - From the lift line through the park. |
| Lifts Report - Lift hours may vary based on business volume and/or adverse weather or snow conditions. |
