the breakes aren`t work, you ride the bike in the same way as ski. If you want to breack you have to make a bend.

there are some pages were you can see videos or fotos of riding sessions. A Father from my frind have developed this snooter shoes.

@ muttley

we often ride in ski areas with t bar lifts. So it is very easy to handle the bike during lifting. In my foto album you can see some pictures about lifting.

But with a chairlift you have to hang it up on the side of the chair and additonal you can grap it with your hand. The other possibillity is you can take it on the seat if no other persons want to lift up.

I hope my you understand my englisch ^^

Yeah if we are going to ride, we take of the break and the chain. Without the chain it`s easier to handle.

It have nearly the same skills as ski.

You can`t power it, you have to get the speed from the hill ^^

@ mmdgirard:

I`m pretty sure that you never had ridden such a snowbike.

I don`t think that you look like an idiot. If you have your bike under controll, it`s nearly the same as in summer.

that would be cool if there was a paddle tire barely appearing through the rear ski. That way you could pedal on flat ground. Idk how well it would work, but it may be quite helpful.
