The beautiful graphics are a thrill as you race for a best time or attempt wild freestyle moves but the coolest part about this game is that players are not constrained to a course. You may wander all over the mountain in search of the fastest routes or wildest jumps. It is exciting to explore the back country, speeding down a powdered slope with no idea what lays ahead.

Some players have become aware that the texture skins that decorate the objects in the Boarder Zone game are a fairly common graphics file format. The Targa or .tga files are easy to design and share. Customizing the look of your game can be a lot of fun. Martin Larsson's S-snowboarding website offers Boarder Zone customizing info and a collection of original board and clothing files. Swapping skin textures seems to be unofficially supported by the Boarder Zone...the game's default install includes a big collection of extra clothing outfits but offers no documentation on how to exchange them...
