ABSTRACT:
A vehicle for snow and ice which is ridden by standing thereon is provided with a boat-like hull section having a bottom and curved upwardly at its forward and after ends. At least two outer longitudinal runners are located on the outer portions of the bottom. Preferably, a center longitudinal runner is located between the outer runners and may extend to the forward and after ends of the hull section. To accommodate the feet of a rider, forward and after platform members are mounted on each end of the hull which members are preferably tilted upwardly. A center platform member is mounted atop the hull section between the forward and after platform members.
In other embodiments, a portion of the center runner at its forward end is serrated to allow frontal pivoting and acrobatic exercises. In still another embodiment there is provided a braking means consisting of a serrated triangular block mounted on the undersurface of the after platform member which digs into ice or snow in response to rearward pressure on the after platform member.
