Some spots you'll be able to unlock as you progress, while others you'll need to find… Be sure to scout uncharted areas and use your trusty binoculars to locate and unlock new Drop Zones and challenges.

RIDE TOGETHER!

PLAYSTYLES

There are a variety of ways to experience Steep! Build your own expertise by focusing on your favorite Playstyle (identifiable by their associated color and symbol):

SCORING

There are three ways to score in Steep:

• Freestyle: Doing jumps and tricks.
• Freeride: Navigating along a small or big crest and staying as long as possible to earn the maximum Freeride points.
• Extreme: Dodging or navigating close to trees, cliffs and obstacles.

TRICKS & RIDING

Switching: Push [LS] and [RS] in opposite directions to ride forward/backward (ski) or to switch between goofy/regular stance (snowboard).

Advanced Tricks:

• Snowboard/Skiing: Use [RS] UP or DOWN to perform a flip (snowboard) or a Lincoln loop (ski).
• Snowboard/Skiing: Use [RS] LEFT or RIGHT at any time while performing a trick to shift your body 90°, to add style to your trick, or to finish a risky rotation.
• Snowboard/Skiing: The pressure you put on the [LS] when you perform a trick determines your speed of rotation. Push [LS] lightly to perform a classic 360° spin on a huge jump!
• Paragliding: Use [LS] to navigate, then push [RT] to tweak your turns or perform flips. Push [LT] to stabilize/brake and hold until you reach the ground to land safely.

Advanced Grabs:

• Use [RS] to choose the hand position on the board/skis before pushing [RT]/[LT] to grab.
• Once you grab your board/skis, you can tweak it by pushing [RS] in any direction.
