Snowboard Halfpipe

A snowboard halfpipe is a specialized track used for snowboarding competitions and practice, shaped like a U with vertical walls called walls or sides. Riders perform tricks and jumps by sliding back and forth along the pipe, using its walls to gain height and execute spins, flips, and other maneuvers. The goal is to combine skill, style, and control to score points from judges. The halfpipe typically measures about 22 feet high and 400 feet long, with smooth, curved walls that provide the ideal environment for showcasing technical proficiency and daring stunts.
