French term or phrase: rider autant sur la piste qu'en freeride
"On a des qualités de glisse qui sont très bonnes, une accroche sur neige dure qui permet de rider autant sur la piste qu'en freeride"
Could anyone help out on this sentence, particularly from "une accrochce..." onwards - I'm not a great skier myself so want to be sure of what they're talking about!
I will have a few more questions coming up so many thanks in advance to everyone who can help, and apologies to those who don't like 'batches' of questions!!!

Explanation:
Je peux te dire que ce n'est pas du très bon français. Je pense qu'on peut traduire "accroche" par "grip" et "rider" par "ride"

Explanation:
mon idée est qu'il ne s'agit pas forcément de ski mais d'un autre engin de glisse qui peut donner de la glisse aussi bien surles pistes normales qu'en dehors pour ce qui est même en F consacré comme freeride, (selon contexte hors piste, figures libres pour certains sports de glisse etc)

Explanation:
"rider" is part of snowboard jargon
In English it would be shortened to "Ride"
