Other youtube videos show people taking them downhill, and using a chairlift to get back up hill. I'd like to see someone ascending the hill just using the ktrack....
Having said that, it might be a viable business idea. If it's fun, people will buy it!
what he said.........
I am a tele skier and have seen bike type stuff people used at the resorts to replicate skiing downhill. This is the first where you can pedal.............
Also since the Ktrak is really rear wheel drive/traction don't think you can stand up and peddle.......
My guess, though it is ONLY a guess, is that a mtn bike with studded tires would work just as well for city conditions with tons of snow.........
I'd rather ski frankly
