ABSTRACT:
A ski attachment for a free-turning vehicle wheel consisting of one or more skis, rigidly joined if more than one, adapted to be placed beneath the wheel in line therewith, a cradle carried on the top of the ski, to the rear of center thereof, and configurated to receive and support the lower portion of the tire of the wheel, and tension devices for drawing the cradle into indenting relation to the tire. The tension devices may consist of connectors joining the cradle to the wheel axle at each side of the wheel, or of steel straps surrounding tire peripherally and joined at their ends to the cradle. A special ski bottom configuration assists in preventing lateral slipping or skidding in turns.
