"para snowboard"的定义和意义

What is "para snowboard"?

Para snowboard is a relatively new version of snowboarding intended for athletes with physical disabilities. Athletes ride with the help of adaptive equipment down snow-covered slopes to enjoy the snow. Different categories involve sitting events and standing events, and athletes are expected to perform similar tricks to snowboarders without disabilities, such as jumps and turns. It is a skillful, balancing game that requires great control. Just like any other form of snowboarding, the goal is to traverse the course as quickly and successfully as possible while overcoming challenges posed by the new equipment.
