  • 1954 Skiboards in Action !

    Thanks to G. for turning me on to a vid of some early 1954 skiboards in action . After the first section of the vid with normal size skis there are two types of shortees . the first are short skiboard like shortees in action , and then are longer twin tip shortees in action . These short skis predated skiboards and twin tips

    Here is a pic of the short skiboard like boards in use at an indoor ski lession



    Here is pic of a gal with one of the longer twintip shortees strapped on



    here is the vid of these babies in action ... . they hadn't realized yet that they really didn't need poles .
