NORDIC

LT / RT left + right ski — press to plant and push (harder = faster),
hold to ride the ski, release to lift it. alternate triggers for the skate rhythm — both at once and you topple
LB / RB left + right pole — alternate or double-pole together; tap A for both poles at once
sticks sideways: angle that ski to turn (both in = snowplow brake)  ·  Y skate / classic
tuck: double-pole and keep the input pinned (both bumpers or A) — release to stand, re-pole to re-tuck
your ski burns green while you ride it — push any time in the green. red = you overstayed (-2 rhythm bars)
spam your legs too fast and the exhaustion meter redlines: 4 s doubled over, no legs, no poles
legs and arms both tire; gliding is the recovery
d-pad quick chat — ↑ nice glide   → race?   ↓ sorry   ← go go go
endless: infinite trail  ·  valley: chalet hub + color-coded runs
d-pad or L stick ←→: pick mode  ·  valley: BACK for trail map
START menu → CONTROLS for the stick-limbs variant: sticks = skis, triggers = poles
