New Way to Go

Hi all,

Italians are famous for their love of scooters, you will see people aged 14 to 70 riding them and while they may not be quite as popular in the UK I find my scooter to be a blessing in the rush hour traffic, unfortunately they are not so good in the winter months when it's cold wet or snowy, but hey this idea maybe the answer to my dreams.

New Prototype?

Hi all,
Over the years we have come upon many a skibike that has seen better days, they are generally skibikes from the past and usually manufactured by Hari & Brenter etc. They tend to be ridden by the local school children for pleasure or by the lift attendants who use them to check under the lifts at the end of the day. They all tend to be in a rather poor condition, and have suffered the ravages of the mountains - the two shown however are different - they look home-made but yet they do not. We have never seen a model like this and wonder if anyone else has. Better still if the owners read this page, and get in touch to enlighten us, that would be even better.
Gail & Mervyn.

Hello Petr

Hello Petr,
Many thanks for your skibike pictures,
Your attention to detail in the manufacture of your prototype skibike is exceptional and we wish you good luck in it's development, please keep us informed of your progress, and please update us with any news, or new pictures. we have added your website to our links page at http://www.skibikers.tk/We have just spent a memorable 2 weeks in Hinterglemm Austria (Hotel Wolf). For the first time in 19 years we did not have to instruct newcomers to our sport, it gave us time to look at and improve our own skibike skills, something that is not always possible when instructing. We hope your skibike season has been a good one for you also, and we hope to hear from you again soon.
Best regards to you all.
Gail & Mervyn.

Hallo Skibikers!

Ich melde mich nochmal nach 3 Jahren! Saison 2006/07 ist für uns schon weg, aber wir freuen uns für die nächste.
Ich schicke Fotos aus Gebirge Jeseniky in Tschechei, wo haben wir die letzte Tests des neues Models "007" durchführen.
Mein Sohn hilft uns sehr bei Skibob-Produktion.
Die Fotos des "007" SB sind noch nicht zu Verfügung, aber Sie könnten die Fotos des "006" auf den Seiten www.skibob.cz finden.

Viel Glück!!

Do It Yourself

Hi all,
If you wish to try skibiking in an unconventional way and happen to have an old bicycle lurking in your garden shed then this may be the answer you've been looking for, an element of DIY is called for though. How does it ride? Well you will have to contact Oblongata for the answer to that question. What will the European ski lift attendants think of it? Probably not a lot!
