Always Use Proper Devices To Help Control Runaway Equipment

marble-mountain-safety-tips

A skier/rider must use a braking or retention system at all times. Ski brakes are recommended as the best and safest method of ski retention. Skis with broken or missing ski brakes are not allowed on a hill and must be replaced with a pair with functioning brakes. It is also mandatory that snowboards have a brake or retention device. Runaway skis or snowboards without proper braking systems can cause injury, even death.

Know the Code. Be safety conscious. It’s your responsibility.
