# Performing Tricks

Performing tricks is your Riders' way of making a living. You can either perfom tricks in PvE/PvP direct competitions or show them off at events. **By performing tricks you can earn POW and win exclusive items, NFTs and invitations to other events.**

The actual execution of a trick works in the exact same way as in training. Now you might want to ask why we need training at all. There are two reasons actually:

1. You will have higher losses for failing tricks in competitions than in the Snow Park. This means you might want to actually train *yourself* before *entering* a competition.
2. Depending on the entering criteria of events or the requirements your potential competitor has, you'll need to prove that you have mastered a trick. This can only be done with the metadata on your Riders' NFT, which again can only be acquired by mastering the trick in the fun park.
