snowblades
Stubby slope gear
Snowblades are short, wide skis designed for easier maneuverability than traditional skis.
Typically around 90 to 100 centimeters long, they became popular in the 1990s as a more accessible alternative for beginners or as a playful option for experienced skiers: I rented snowblades instead of regular skis.
Also called skiboards or skiblades.
