will i have to take jumps and be skilled in freeride techniques ?
No. The trails are not freeride in the North Shore sense of the word, this is big adventure riding in a natural high alpine setting. Drops off’s, challenges and jumps can be found, it is up to the individual if you decide to do them. The Kona Freeride park in Livigno has several (world championship 2005)downhill course’s with all the expected features – burns, jumps, table tops, north shore etc. and can also be incorporated into the week.
