FIS RULES

 

1. Consideration for other skiers

Every skier or snowboarder must behave at all times in such a way that they do not endanger or harm anyone else.

2. Managing speed and driving style

Every skier or snowboarder must ride with reasonable distance and with due regard to the distance they can see. He/she must adapt his/her speed and driving style to his/her skill, the terrain, snow and weather conditions as well as the traffic density.

3. Choice of track

A skier or snowboarder arriving from behind must choose his/her track so as not to endanger the skier in front of him/her.

4. Overtaking

Overtaking may be from above or below, from the right or from the left, but always with a distance that gives the skier or snowboarder being overtaken sufficient room for all his movements.

5. Coming in and going out

Any skier or snowboarder wishing to enter a slope or to start again after stopping must look up and down to ensure that he can do so without danger to himself or others.

6. Stopping

Every skier or snowboarder must avoid lingering unnecessarily in narrow or obscure places on the slope. A skier or snowboarder who has fallen must clear such a place as quickly as possible.

7. Ascent and descent

A skier or snowboarder ascending or descending on foot must use the edge of the slope.

8. Respecting signs

Every skier or snowboarder must respect the signs and signals.

9. Behaviour in case of accidents

In the event of an accident, every skier or snowboarder must administer first aid.

10. Obligation to prove oneself

Every skier or snowboarder, whether a witness or a participant, whether responsible or not, is obliged to provide proof of identity in the event of an accident.
