ABSTRACT:
A snow scooter is disclosed. The scooter has elongate board upwardly curved at one or both ends. A receptacle is formed in the board to placement of a steering and braking mechanism therein. A steering and braking handle projects upwardly from the steering and braking mechanism and is used to move the steering and braking mechanism in all 3 directions. A rudder or fin is located at the bottom of the steering and braking mechanism and projects downwardly into the snow. The rudder or fin is turned when the steering and braking handle is turned, effecting steering of the snow scooter. The steering and braking handle may also be angularly moved with respect to the board longitudinal axis in order to cause the control disk to project downwardly from the board bottom into the snow in order to cause braking. Steering and braking may be effected simultaneously from a single handle for a snow scooter that provides ultimate maneuverability and ease of use.
