This was a description I found for slopestyle from an article called "A Guide to the 2003 Winter X Games'
Snowboarding and Skiing: Slopestyle
Men and women snowboarders and skiers compete separately on a snow-packed obstacle course and are awarded points for their performances. Judges base their scores on the quality and quantity of jumps hit, as well as how well the competitors incorporate the man-made obstacles into their run. The obstacles, things like handrails and picnic tables, are similar to those found on skateboarding courses. More points are awarded for difficult and creative tricks that impress the judges.
Hahahah can't believe how much our sport has evolved in so little time!
btw, Tanner 1st, CR 2nd, Jon 3rd
