Po -- if you ski, you've seen the ever more popular short skis, where people are skiing on 2 foot length skis. But they of course ski looking forward (mostly). |
|
| |
On a snowboard, you ski sideways, but your two feet are completely locked together because they're on the same plane. |
|
| |
So I propose to cut the snowboard and create two small boards that are designed to allow you to ski sideways as on a snowboard but not have your legs locked. |
|
| |
oh, ok if you say so. but what makes this different to the way I ski? sorta ugly and ridiculous? got my vote already! |
|
| |
Given how easy to do this one is, I suggest you try it out and report back to us. |

I can't see this working. You turn a snowboard by shifting your weight and by twisting the board. Split the board in two and you can no longer do this. |

st3f -- I think if the pieces are large enough you can do it, either by lifting one of the legs or by keeling the back leg, sort of a telesnowboarding. |

DrCurry -- is a report from the hospital acceptable :) |
|
| |
It would satisfy st3f, I'm pretty certain. I don't snowboard myself (dodgy knees). |
|
| |
just tried looking on google, but short snowboards or unusual skis just doesn't cut it |
|
| |
i think you should put rocket boosters on them that you can engage and disengage to make them even more fun! or dangerous. whichever. |
|
| |
I never new that broken snowboards worked better than the regular ones... |

Freebooter -- the issue there would be a sharp leading edge in the back piece -- quite different than my proposed design |
