5. ENTERING AND STARTING - look up and down the hill before starting or entering a marked run.
6. STOPPING - only stop at the edge of the piste or where you can easily be seen.
7. CLIMBING - when climbing up or down always keep to the side of the piste.
8. SIGNS - obey all signs and markings - they are there for your safety
