Challenge

Challenges are "levels" on the mountain, which you start by going through the respective start gate. Some challenges are unlocked from the start, while others are unlocked by collecting skipasses. The trial challenges however, are unlocked by finding them on the mountain. Every challenge has at least one level of completion, and a lot of challenges have as many as four. The Bronze, Silver and Gold level requirements are shown in the description of the challenge, together with your results and some results that other players have got. The fourth level of completion, Double Diamond, is only unlocked when the Gold level has been completed on every challenge on the mountain.

## Types

There are seven different types of challenges, each with their own type of goal. The trial challenge is an exception though, being able to have very different kinds of goals.

### Race

This type of challenge is all about speed. Stay between the gates and get to the goal as fast as possible. The levels of completion are marked by certain times that you have to get under.

### Trial

The trial challenges are first marked as pink sparks on the map, only when you encounter them on the mountain, the emblem will show up. The trial challenge is special in the way that the goals work, with goals that can differ a lot. The most common type of trial challenge is *Clear The Gates*, which is a bit like a race challenge, but time doesn't matter in the same way. It has only one level of completion, and that is to get through the gates in under 60 seconds, which most of the time isn't too hard. Other examples of goals are; slapping as many skiers as possible, dropping as high as possible and landing a trick with the highest score possible.

### Top-to-Bottom

Commonly referred to as TTB. A top-to-bottom challenge is just what it sounds like, get from the top to the bottom. Just like trials, this type of challenge only shows up as pink sparks on the map until you encounter it on the mountain. The start gate is usually placed high up on the mountain, and the finish somewhere close to the bottom. This type of challenge has no gates that limit your movement and it's all about finding the best and fastest route possible. The levels of completion are just like the race challenge marked by certain times to get under.

### Drop

The goal of a drop challenge is to drop as many meters as possible. The drop height is calculated by adding the height of the three largest drops during the run. The levels of completion are marked by certain numbers of meters which you have to drop more than.

### Gate Trick

This challenge is about getting as much score in one run as possible. The gates limits you to a certain park or route where you have to ride. The levels of completion are marked by certain amounts of score that you have to get more than.

### Time Trick

The time trick challenge has the same goal as the gate trick; to get as much score as possible, but this type of challenge isn't limited by gates. You choose whichever route you want to take, your only limit is the time, which varies from challenge to challenge. The levels of completion works just like on the gate trick challenge.

### Distance

The distance challenge is about getting as far as possible before the time runs up. The start gate's placement is usually similar to the one of a top-to-bottom challenge, though this challenge doesn't have a finish. The levels of completion are marked by certain distances that you have to get further than.
