No walking on the ski pistes. Be considerate towards other sledgers. Your speed and riding style must match your ability. Sledgers must ride in such a way that they can respond safely to any hazards. They must match their speed and riding style to their ability and to the terrain, snow and weather conditions, as well as to the traffic density Stay seated at all times; no riding head-first or lying down; sledges may not be tied together Respect the lane of the person ahead. The sledger coming from behind must choose their lane so as to not endanger sledgers in front of them. Leave plenty of space when overtaking
