Game Summary
The first 3-D snowboarding racing game, the original 1080°™ Snowboarding, created the genre with amazing visuals and spot-on controls. Crystal Lake, Golden Forest, Deadly Fall and other slopes offered everything a boarder could want, from cool tricks to a perfect speed rush. It's wintertime again and the snow's never looked so good! Akari Hayami and Ricky Winterborn have rounded up an all new cast of characters to head back to the slopes for some high-speed competition.

Features
- Race through realistic natural environments, complete with powder drifts, ice patches and groomed hardpack ... but don't get comfortable. You will have to contend with massive avalanches, rockslides, cave-ins, bridge collapses and environments teeming with wildlife and other skiers.

- Experience the unique character-balancing system, which allows you to keep the on-screen character on his or her board. Take advantage of a deep trick system, which lets you flip, spin, grab, grind and tweak your way to glory.

- Master a big catalogue of crazy tricks as you experience the speed rush of big mountain racing. Slalom skills better be tuned as you go head-to-head with CPU-controlled masters or other players.
