US Ski & Snowboard Competition Rules

Along with the refinement of race formats in the past few years there have been many rule changes.  These changes are a result of a better understanding of the experience of the race and attempt to provide for safe and fair competitions.  From the perspective of the racer, it boils down to a set of responsibilities.

Coaches - please familiarize yourself with the current rules and documents below and review important rules and updates with your athletes.
