According to many snowboarders, jumping and freestyle is what snowboarding is all about. Therefore, in order to provide a designated and supervised area that does not threaten other skiers or snowboarders lives, many ski areas have built a half pipe to offer excellent jumping and freestyle potential. 1, record 2, English, - half%20pipe

Une demi-lune représente la moitié d'un tube creusé soit dans la neige ou dans le sol et recouvert de neige. La construction demande au minimum de 2 à 3 heures de travail de machinerie et une journée de travail à la pelle à quatre personnes. La demi-lune est la solution idéale pour pratiquer le style libre en toute sécurité et ainsi éviter que les planchistes sautent partout dans la montagne. 1, record 2, French, - demi%2Dlune
