Abstract
A side-by-side pair of platforms, each equipped with a foot-pad, are coupled in a manner to form a vehicle, and are supported (a) at the rear by a truck-mount under each platform, integrated with a shared axle assembly fitted at its ends with a pair of rear wheels, located at opposite sides of the vehicle, and (b) at the front by a tilt-turn mount system including at least one front wheel, typically a caster-mounted roller, accomplishing dual-platform tilt-turning in response to the user's body movements simulating superior snow-skiing techniques, thus enabling sustained self-propulsion by user body movements and providing recreation, training and practice for skiers of all ages and skill levels.
