20150042083 | Suspension Roller Ski - The invention relates to a roller ski having a suspension system incorporated into the front and rear regions of the main roller ski body. The suspension system allows roller-skiers to undertake roller-skiing on rougher pavement, asphalt or the like by reducing stress and/or discomfort to the roller-skier. In addition, the suspension system provides a skiing experience that more closely resembles skiing on snow by returning energy back to the skier in a manner similar to the effect that the camber of a snow ski provides to the skier. In addition, in one embodiment, the roller ski also includes a pressure sensitive ratchet system that simulates skiing using classical technique. | 02-12-2015 |
