Looks like a spin on snow blades, except they're designed to use an inline skate, or ski boot. Looks like they could be machined from a piece of plastic or aluminum but probably plastic... hard to tell. Expensive.

this is definitely a bad idea. Now if they were mounted tele then you would have something.

yeah they are designed to attach to a rollerblade boot so you can rollerblade in the summer and "ski" in the winter. Some of the "pro" models are about $400 for essentially a very small machined piece of steel/plastic/aluminium. The video is pretty funny. I would have liked to see some people hucking cliffs or some jumps on them!

They will probably be "facing" some nasty faceplants!...:-)

Looks like fun for the kids, but who wants to ski on green circles all day.

some places like in the midwest of the us basically only have green circles so I could see how this would be kinda fun in a place like that or korea.
it still sucks
