Term
Roller
A rounded terrain rise that can be absorbed, pumped or used for airtime.
GLOSSARY · Terrain, snow & environment
Rollers are smooth humps in the slope. Riders can absorb them to stay on the snow, pump them to gain speed, or pop off their crest for a small air.
Context and distinction
A roller is part of the slope; a jump is built with a takeoff ramp. Rollers are also used to practise absorption.
