What are little skis?

Little skis, also called skiboards or skiblades, are short skis that range from 75cm to 110cm in length. They were originally designed for use in terrain parks, but their versatility has made them popular for all types of skiing. Little skis typically have a wider waist and are designed to be ridden flat, without the need for a traditional ski turn.

Advantages of little skis

Little skis offer several advantages over traditional skis. For one, they are easier to control and turn, making them an excellent choice for beginners. They also allow for more playful skiing, with riders able to spin, jump, and slide with ease. Additionally, little skis are more versatile than traditional skis, as they can be used for both park and all-mountain skiing.

Choosing the right little skis

When choosing little skis, there are a few key factors to consider. These include:

Length

The length of your little skis will depend on your height and weight. As a general rule, shorter skis are easier to control and turn, while longer skis provide more stability and speed. For beginners, longer skiboards are the most suitable choice. They are not too long to be clunky and heavy but not too short to be demanding when it comes to balance. 

Width

Little skis typically have a wider waist than traditional skis, which provides greater stability and makes them easier to ride. Wider skis are also more suitable for beginners. 

Flex

The flex of your little skis will affect their responsiveness and playfulness. Softer skis are easier to control and turn, while stiffer skis provide more stability and speed.

Bindings

Little skis are typically sold with integrated bindings, which are designed specifically for use with skiboards. These bindings are lightweight and provide excellent control, but it's important to make sure they are compatible with your boots. Skiboards by Snowfeet are available in 2 versions: for ski boots and snowboard boots which makes them very versatile when it comes to skiers' needs.

Skiblades 65

Skiblades 65 cannot deny their predecessor - Snowfeet - not only by their length but also by the significant way of moving resembling ice skating. Snowblades are by their material and shape similar to the long skis but they carry on the legacy of Big Foot in their wider shape. 

They combine the best from the world of skiskates and short skis. They allow to skate on snow but you can use them as long skis, too. They have also the best length for children who are learning how to ski.
