Big Rock to host ski event

17 years ago

    VAIL, Colo. – The Jeep Terrain Park Challenge announced that Maine’s Big Rock Resort has been selected to host a safety clinic and competition on Sunday, Mar. 9.     Terrain parks push skiing and snowboarding to the extreme as riders navigate through a series of pipes, rails, tabletops and other obstacles. With the increasing number of terrain park riders, however, comes a risk of injury to beginner and expert riders alike.
    To address this concern, organizers will train riders how to avoid injury. The Jeep Terrain Park Challenge guides riders through the National Ski Area Association’s world-class Smart Style program, emphasizing awareness of surroundings, knowing one’s limits and respecting other riders.
