Raging Buffalo Snowboard Patrol

Welcome to the Raging Buffalo Snowboard Patrol website. Our Snowboard Patrol is dedicated to providing the finest first aid care to our boarders and we are committed to the safety and education of the riders on our hill. When in doubt or in need of assistance you can find us on the runs in our red jackets with a large cross on it. We are the first Snowboard exclusive patrol unit.

The Raging Buffalo Snowboard Patrollers have been trained to the standards of the National Ski Patrol System to maintain the highest level of safety for all riders at our park. Every patroller must go through rigorous classroom and hands-on training for certification. Patrollers are updated annually and all season long with training sessions.

Our Snowboard Patrol Unit is based upon volunteers that are highly qualified through the National Ski Patrol System.

Your Responsibilities as a Snowboarder

Always stay in control
Boarders ahead of you or in front of you have the right away
Be cautious when starting down a run to yield to others
Use devices and/or make sure that your gear is on tightly so to avoid runaway snowboards
Avoid any closed jumps, features or trails
Learn how to properly get on and off our tow ropes and magic carpet
Take a lesson to learn how to snowboard
Dress appropriately for the daily weather conditions - layers are best
Know your blind side and take precautions

Guidelines for an Injury

Never move the injured person or remove any of their equipment
Place your board in an upright position so that the patrol and other boarders can locate you better
Send someone else to report the injury to Patrol while you protect the scene until a patroller can reach you
Immediately notify the Raging Buffalo Snowboared Patrol or Staff Member so that they are aware and can take appropriate action
