Step 01

Download what you need.

All published outputs (IO1, eventually IO2 and IO3) are available without a paywall, login, or "request access" form. PDFs are PDFs. Software is software.

Step 02

Adapt it to your scene.

You can translate, rewrite, remix or shorten any of the materials. The CC BY-SA 4.0 licence is permissive — share the result back under the same licence so others can keep building.

Step 03

Credit the project.

Cite "VR Freestyle (Erasmus+ Sport, 2025–2027)" plus the specific output you used. A formal citation block is below — copy-paste-ready.

Step 04

Tell us what you did.

If you used the materials in your local programme, drop us a line. We collect reuse stories for the project's final dissemination report — and to encourage other organisations to do the same.
