Snow Rails: The synchronized ski system

The new synchronized skiing system, called Snow Rails, consists of two specially engineered, high performance carving skis that are flexibly linked by a cleverly designed coupling device. The skis remain parallel to each other during longitudinal shifting and maintain identical edge angles to the surface at all times. This technology prevents one of the sport’s major hazards, crossing of the skis, and edge mistakes. The parallel an synchronized design also evenly distributes the forces to both legs, allowing for safe maneuvrability, even around sharpe curves. With snow rails, fluttering of the skis ist impossible because both edges are always and equally in contact with the surface. Skiing on any terrain and condition, even hard artificial snow, is safer and easier. Snow Rails have the potential to substantially reduce accident risk by preventing common ski-handling mistakes – without diminishing the pleasure of the sport.

1 Basic position (for straight running): The skis are parallel with both gliding surfaces completely flat on the snow. The dual coupling elements guarantee ideal directional stability and prevent crossing of the skis.

2 Traverse position (for a slope run): The ski’s angles are identical to each othe for perfect synchronization. This guarantees optimal edge contact and therefore perfect grip on ice.

3 Curve position (for turning downhill): Parallel directional change is achieved with the skis‘ identical edge angle. Extreme curve forces are evenly distributed to both legs, therefore reducing injury risk.
