Skibike lessons - Yeah riding is counter-intuitive at first

by G. Kunkel

I really think everyone should have a Type 2 skibike lesson from a qualified trained professional when first jumping on-board.  It's just too easy to get going too fast out of control on a Type 2.  And when I mean trained qualified professional, I mean someone with a PSIA background.  I've seen too many quacks out there teaching carving a bike right off the bat.

Riding a Type 2 is not like riding a bicycle - at first.  It's more like motocross or downhill mountain biking.  It's nothing like cross-country mountain biking.

Terrain used for learning is important.  All the basics should be taught on nearly flat green runs until the basics are learned.  Over-terraining novices is easy to do.  Do not move on to blue runs until they learn the basics of slowing down and stopping.  If they still need to put feet down to stop - they do not get it.  Do not pass go.

Learning to stop and slow down is learned just the way skiers do.  Learn to skid the skis to slow down.  It's easier said than done.  Most people want to ride a skibike like a bicycle and lean into the hill.  That gets the skis on a carve - which is a disaster for a beginner.  The handlebars need to be tilted downhill while traversing to achieve the skid.

If an instructor introduces carving right off the bat - they are an unqualified idiot.  Putting students on a blue slope only confirms they are an idiot.

After learning skidded traverses comes skidded turns.  Again, one needs to unlearn leaning uphill.  One must learn to keep the skibike skis barely on edge on the snow.  It requires tilting the handlebars downhill throughout the turning motion.

One also needs to look where one is going - not down at the snow.  Look up and across the slope when performing skidded traverses.  It's really important.

These skills must be learned before advancing to new terrain.  Afterwards, advance to a harder green slopes.  If one must put their foot or feet down to stop, go back to the easy green.  You are not ready to advance.  Using a foot to stop can lead to a torn ACL.

Knowing how to skid your skis is important at even higher skill levels.  Say one is flying down a run and suddenly it's a giant ice patch.   Get off the edges and skid.  Same holds true in the moguls - get off the high edge angle.  Skiers understand this.

If one does not feel comfortable riding on steep blue or black runs, it's probably because one never learned to skid their skis in the first place.  Step back and learn.

If one needs a professional skibike lesson from trained professional skibike instructors, contact the Ski + Ride School at Winter Park Resort.   Type 2 skibike lessons are cheaper than a hospital bill.  Lessons are suited for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners.

Replacement K2 Snowcycle seat covers are now available

Seat covers are available for purchase for K2 Snowcycles.  If you have an original cover on your snow bike, I'm sure it's torn up by now.

The original seats were made from marine vinyl which just does not hold up in cold weather.  It gets brittle and then cracks.  Heavy duty arctic vinyl rated to -30 F is a much better option.

I'm now offering replacement seat covers that will fit all K2 Snowcycle models like:  the SMX, Adult 1.0, Youth 1.0.  They used a standard seat base for all their models.

These skibike covers are made from Spradling Arctic Vinyl in the black color.  One can get all the fabric specifications here.  The color pigments are UV stabilized to reduce any fading.  Seams are double stitched for strength.

The seat covers with installation instructions are $80 plus shipping/tax.   Discounts available to orders of 12+ covers.

Installation requires a heavy duty staple gun, staples, spray adhesive, hair dryer, hammer, heavy duty staple remover, patience, and brute strength.

If you don't feel like tackling the installation, drop by my house or mail me your seat.  There is an additional charge for installation and shipping.

All seat covers are made by myself in my Colorado studio.  

I am currently donating my time and expertise to making and recovering the seats for the K2 Snowcycle fleet at the National Sports Center for the Disabled at Winter Park Resort.

Here is the first replacement cover installed:

K2 Snowcycle replacement seat cover

New seat cover next to torn up K2 seat covers

These K2 Snowcycle snow bike seat covers can be ordered at EpicSkibike.com or off Ebid.net.  Or contact me at watertigerenterprisesllc(at)comcast.net.

If one needs an entire seat replaced due to degraded foam or wood base, SkiBikeFun.com offers them for $150 on their website.

2012 - 2013 ski bike updates for Winter Park Resort

Skibike lessons and rentals return once again to Winter Park Resort.   There will be a few changes to the program.

At a December meeting for returning Winter Park skibike instructors, the skibike foreman explained what's changing.

The good news.  There are no changes for lessons and rentals for the Type II peg skibikes.  Sign up and then show up or pickup your skibike at West Portal Rentals.  Lessons still go out at 9:30 am and 1:00 pm.  Wear your own snowboard boots and helmet or use the ones included with the lesson/rental.

Things have changed with the Type I skibob skibikes.   Ski + Ride School turned them over to the Tour Center located in the Balcony House building.  The Tour Center will schedule daytime lessons/tours and run the night skibike program.   No rentals or lessons will be available through West Portal Rentals.

If you have questions or want to make a reservation use the Winter Park Resort Skibike and Night Bikes webpage at  http://www.winterparkresort.com/plan-your-trip/lessons/ski-bikes-and-night-bikes.aspx

SkiBikeFun.com has used Lenz Sport Alpine Brawler skbikes for sale

I just checked the SkiBikeFun.com website.  There are two used Lenz Sport Alpine Brawlers listed for sale there.

Since freestyle (peg) skibikes are a relatively new style, used models are hard to find.  The further you get away from 'ski states', the worse it becomes.

Shipping in the Continental USA is included with skibike purchases at SkiBikeFun.com, so you don't have to worry about that additional expense.

The two bikes listed are at :

http://skibikefun.com/LSBBUBlue001.htm
Medium frame
$1600.00

And at http://skibikefun.com/LSGreenSpringerUsed001.htm
Large frame
$1495.00

The spring fork on this beast can always be upgraded.

These are great prices for used bikes.  Better get one before they are both gone.

2nd Annual Berthoud Pass Skibike Downhill Race & Huckfest

Last year's skibike get-together at the end of April 2011 was so successful, Lenz Sport Skibikes decided to host another one.

This year's rally will be held on Sunday April 29th with Saturday being reserved for any potential course work. The rally will one again include the one-run downhill on 7-Mile on the north side of Berthoud Pass. Those who feel lucky can try their turn on the 12 ft.-drop 'Big Huck'.

Food and beverages will once again be available but contributions are always welcome. Biscuit brought a big box of donuts last year if I remember correctly. Paper plates, cups, hot dogs, brats, burgers, buns, beans, plastic utensils, paper towels, etc.

Racers are encouraged to contribute to the shuttle drivers gas bill. We all know the price of gasoline lately. The shuttle trucks have to drive to Berthoud Pass from Denver in addition to the drives up and down the pass to shuttle skibikers.

Devin will need timers at the top and bottom of the downhill course. Bring a chair.

Hope everyone can attend. It was loads of fun last year. Personally I'm hoping for a repeat of all that fresh powder.

Azteca America visits Winter Park Resort

USA national Spanish language TV Azteca America recently visited Winter Park Resort to find out more about the skibike program run by the Ski + Ride School. Winter Park Skibike Instructor Rob Harder took the crew out for their first lesson.

At West Portal Rentals at the Winter Park base area some TV crew members choose to learn on skibobs while others wanted to learn on Lenz Sport peg skibikes. After some brief filming at the skibike rack, the crew took off to Discovery Park for a first time lesson in Spanish.

Film from their day of skibiking.

Lenz Sport Skibikes at SIA On-Snow Show at Winter Park Resort

by G. Kunkel

Lenz Sport Skibikes are an integral part of Winter Park Resort's Ski & Ride School. During the SIA On-Snow Show (Snowsports Industry of America) the largest snowsport trade show in the USA, free demo's and lessons were offered on Lenz Brawlers and Launches.

The booth generated a great deal of interest from skiers and snowboarders from registered SIA industry participants and the general public. About 75% of participants were SIA and another 25% were general public. It was an even split between skiers and snowboarders. About 75% of skibike demo participants were men and 25% were women.

Skibike demo participants received a free 1.5 - 2 hour lesson from Winter Park Resort skibike instructors. People came from a variety of states. While most were from 'ski states', a number were from the midwest and overseas. New skibike converts came from Ohio and Slovakia.

Feedback from demo participants was 99% positive. Most came back from the lessons with ear to ear grins. A few begged to be able to take the bikes out by themselves afterwards. After leaving driver's licenses and a credit card, they were accomodated.

Two people found that peg skibikes weren't for them. One opted for the more traditional foot-ski skibike and another just decided skibikes weren't for them. A few skeptics stopped by the booth and didn't demo at all. They were all skiers. Snowboarders and downhill mountain bikers seemed to be the most enthusiastic about skibikes.

A number of ski vacationers who couldn't work in a free demo on Monday or Tuesday elected to sign up and pay for lessons later in the week. They were given Preferred Customer Gold Cards to receive $20 off their lesson.

The 2012 skibike demo booth at Winter Park Resort was a great success at SIA. It increased the visibility of skibikes at Winter Park and nationwide.

East Coast Skibike Meet at Loon Mountain in 2012

Don't forget about the annual skibike meet at Loon Mountain Ski Resort. The dates this season are February 17, 2012 - Feb 18, 2012.

I've never made it but have read about the groups days out on the hill on the Yahoo! Groups Skibike Forum. Sounds like it's always a fun time.

Skibikes have full access with no restrictions to Loon Mountain. Bring your peg or your bob. I don't know if lessons or rentals are available but I'm sure someone has a spare bike.

To hook up with the group, join the event's Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/events/303874126308744/

Buying a new ski-bob style skibike

by G. Kunkel

There are essentially two types of skibikes manufactured today - the traditional ski-bob style skibike and the peg style skibike. One requires foot-skis while the other does not. Which one you ride usually depends upon bike preference, age, medical conditions, physical fitness, or which style is allowed at local ski resorts.

There is an extensive list of manufacturers of ski-bob style skibikes in the world. You don't have to settle for the mass-produced, poorly made yellow ski-bobs found in most ski resort rental fleets when purchasing a personal ski-bob skibike. Many people have complained to me they look like lawn furniture too.

Check around and you'll find more durable and comfortable ski-bob models from manufacturers in the USA and Austria. Many can be found in new and used condition. You won't need to continually buy replacement parts from SkiBikeFun.com or other parts supplier either.

Great European ski-bob manufacturers include: Stalmach, Sledgehammer, Flachsmann and Crighton. USA ski-bob manufacturers include ShroomBob, and Lenz Sport. Some of these builders also build peg skibikes.

Stalmach website: http://www.stalmach.com/htm/skibob-snowbike.htm
(USA) Lenz Sport website: http://www.lenzsport.com/
(USA) ShroomBob website: http://www.shroombob.com/ShroomBob_Home.html

Sledgehammer website: http://www.sledgehammer.at/home.html?&L=2Flachsmann website: http://www.m-flachsmann.ch/

Don't let price be the entire deciding factor when purchasing a skibike. Spending a couple hundred extra dollars may give you a skibike with better suspension and be less prone to breakage out on the ski hill.

Skibikers throwing it down in Austria

Just awesome! Skibikes are taking off in Austria! Literally.

A-Basin to open October 13, 2011

All the howling, screaming, and silly comments on A-Basin's Facebook page paid off. They officially open for the 2011-12 ski season tomorrow.

The friendly YouTube video announcement from Alan:

Colorado skibike season about to start

While Wolf Creek Ski Area was the first ski area to open in Colorado for the 2011-12 ski season, it doesn't count for skibikers - we're not welcome there.

Loveland Ski Area and Arapahoe Basin are now duking it out for second place. Since Loveland doesn't allow skibkes, let's hope A-Basin wins this battle.

Due to some early season snowfall it looks like A-Basin will open for the 2011-12 ski season sometime this week. The snowcats are hard at work right now. See the action for yourself on the A-Basin website.

My bet is to look for a Thursday or Friday Opening Day at A-Basin.

Geary Snow Bikes

I got some bad news last week. It looks like Geary Snow Bikes is now out of production and shut down. Their website is down as well.

Except for the skibobbers, skibikers and ski bike manufacturers are still in their infancy and struggling for recognition and acceptance.

Only by supporting and expanding the sport can we prevent other manufacturers from going out of business. As the sport expands and comes under more scrutiny, I think homemade skibiker builders can expect to be banned from ski resorts. The four USA ski resort underwriters will probably mandate it.

If you want skibiking to be allowed at your favorite ski resort, it's going to take an organized campaign. Write letters, make phone calls, and get your friends to do the same. Don't just demand access, just let them know why you won't be coming to their resort this season.

For those ski resorts that currently allow skibiking - let them know you appreciate access. Follow the Responsibility Code while riding and be courteous to other people out on the hill. Let's not lose access to ski resorts that have opened.

Rental Skibikes and Skibike Lessons Returning to Winter Park Resort in 2011-12

Don't get too excited with the news that the skibikes from the 2010-11 Winter Park Resort rental fleet are currently for sale. All that means is Lenz Sport is building a brand new fleet of skibikes for Winter Park Resort for the upcoming skibike season.

I was at Devin's house on Labor Day and the 2011-12 skibike fleet is under construction. Right now it consists of the smaller part construction, frames, and ski adapters. Plans for in-house ski construction are moving along too.

A few skibike manufacturers are not returning for the 2011-12 ski bike season. Lenz Sport peg ski bikes will still be available exclusively for rent and lessons at Winter Park Resort.

Ski resorts wanting to add skibikes to their current programs can contact Devin. As a former PSIA ski instructor and current skibike builder/instructor, he believes in safety and the Skier Responsibility Code.

Skibike Season is Getting Closer - Time to Prepare

The nights are getting cooler in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Frost is starting to appear on car windshields in the morning. One evening last week required putting on a jacket before the sun went down.

In Colorado, this means it's time to remember to renew your ski season pass before the price increases. They are available to purchase right now but around 1-2 weeks after Labor Day Weekend comes the first round of price hikes.

Some ski passes can be purchased or renewed online. Others can only be purchased in-person for first time buyers. Check with the ski resorts' website or Facebook page for information.

If committing to a full season pass isn't in your plans, there is always the option of a 4 Pass or 4-Packs. A Four Pass is a picture pass that allows four days of skiing or riding at the resort. They are non-transferrable. A Four Pack is that - it is a four pack of lift tickets. Just put them on and head to the lift.

Once the ski lifts start spinning - most of these bargain pass offers disappear. Plan ahead now to avoid disappointment.

Looking for a used Lenz Sport ski bike?

by G. Kunkel

Now is the time to buy a used Lenz Sport ski bike. The price will never get any better.

I spoke to Devin a few weeks ago and he wants to clear his inventory of skibikes. He's ready to deal too. He said any skibike in current inventory is $1500.00.

Whether you are looking for a Launch Freestyle, Alpine Brawler, or whatever is hanging around his garage, they're all on sale. Last I looked he had several size bikes on hand. Shoot him an email or post on the Lenz Sport Facebook page to find out what's available.

Most of these skibikes were in the Winter Park Resort rental fleet. They might have some scratches on the paint but the bones are there. Devin has always backed what he's sold.

Devin does ship so if you live on another continent, don't let that stop you. You will not find a better constructed ski bike in my opinion.

When you contact Devin, please tell him I steered you his way. Just mention this blog and he'll know who referred you.

UPDATE: Here is a link to everything Devin has for sale. It includes pictures, models, and sizes
