The ski world's equivalent of active four wheel steering or the skis broke.

The video is worthless. You can't tell anything about how it works. Once they learn to turn on those, they'll have to unlearn it to turn on regular skis.

We've been in touch with the designer and we will hopefully have a review when they feel confident in their production candidate sample For public consumption. Innovative thinking for sure....

I travel a lot.
I am an inventor by vocation. I have seen some really stupid ideas. These are world class stupid.

Learning to ski is hard enough, unlearning and then re-learning right are not good things. Get them out on noodles and teach them to ride the arc.

Agree on the noodles. But why are so many kid's skis too damn stiff?

I'll probably be getting a pair from Ron next year.
I have a friend that bought every gadget ski of the late 70s-early 80s, one at the beginning of each season. Fritzenmeyer Duo, check! Kastle New Style Champion with the triple groove, check!
