READ BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CONNECTV
A few people may experience epileptic seizures when viewing flashing
lights or patterns in our daily environment. These persons may experience
seizures while watching TV pictures or playing video games. Players who
have not had any seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic
condition.
FREE RIDE
Free Ride is not a timed event. You’ll be judged on style and the number of
tricks you successfully complete. Complete each trick without crashing, to
receive a score. There are three different Free Ride courses to conquer
each with 2 levels.
Consult your physician before playing video games if you have an epileptic
condition or experience any of the following symptoms while playing video
games: altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, other involuntary move-
ments, loss of awareness of your surroundings, mental confusion and/or
convulsions.

from a jump.
SLALOM COMPETITION
MAXIMUM WEIGHT LIMITS:
82 KGS / 180 LBS / 13 STONES
This is a timed event where you must ride through a series of gates to get
the fastest time. Your goal is to finish the course in the least amount of
time.
You must pass through each gate to get credit for it.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE:
Do not attempt to “grab” the snowboard while riding it. Rubber soled
shoes are best to wear when riding to avoid slipping off the board.
If you miss a gate, time will be added to your final time as a penalty.
HINT: Pass through a special “Speed Burst” to give you super speed.

be judged on the number and type of tricks. As with the other competi-
tions, you will have to land the trick successfully in order to collect points.

equipped with audio and video input jacks. They are commonly found on
the front of the TV near the contrast, color, and picture adjustment con-

Loud, fast and hard could describe both Mason’s taste in music
as well as his lunatic riding style when ripping down the mountain.

on the TV.
Weather spinning records or spinning in the air, DJ’s effortless style
and Zen like attitude disguise the heart of a fierce competitor.
