is a <a href="/wiki/Snowboard" title="Snowboard">snowboard</a> competition in which four to six competitors race down a course. Snowboard cross courses are typically quite narrow and include <a href="/wiki/Camber_angle" title="Camber angle">cambered</a> turns, various types of jumps, <a href="/wiki/Berm" title="Berm">berms</a>, rollers, drops, steep and flat sections designed to challenge the riders' ability to stay in control while maintaining maximum speed. It is not uncommon for racers to collide with each other mid-race. </p><p>Snowboard cross courses share common traits with motorcycle motocross courses, hence the similarity between the names of each sport.

Given the need to come up with a final segment, Rechtschaffner, a passionate snowboarder, pitched the idea to Stump, who loved it, and <a href="/wiki/Whistler_Blackcomb" title="Whistler Blackcomb">Blackcomb Mountain</a>, who put up prize money and <a href="/wiki/Snowcat" title="Snowcat">snowcat</a> time in order to build the first course in 1991.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> John Graham, who was Stump's business manager, was credited with conceiving the name <i>boardercross</i>. After being seen on the Fox TV show and re-aired on <a href="/wiki/MTV_Sports" title="MTV Sports">MTV Sports</a>, others began staging boardercross events in Canada, the U.S. and Australia. Rechtschaffner travelled to many of these events in order to help them learn how to build the boardercross courses. </p><p>Rechtschaffner had <a href="/wiki/Trademarked" class="mw-redirect" title="Trademarked">trademarked</a> the name boardercross primarily as a way to ensure that people putting on events did so in a way that was safe, exciting and respectful to the world of snowboarding. He denied the ski sanctioning body <a href="/wiki/International_Ski_Federation" class="mw-redirect" title="International Ski Federation">F.I.S.</a> the rights to use the name "boardercross", as he shared the majority of snowboarders' belief that a ski sanctioning body should not be in charge of snowboarding events. That’s why boardercross is referred to by the F.I.S. as “snowboard cross” in Olympic events, even though the overwhelming majority of boardercross racers still refer to their sport by the original term.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.
