The Skooter works on flat terrain as well as hills...just leave one foot on the board and push with the other, using the handle for balance and directional control. In dry, deep snow, Ski Skooter acts like a snowshoe, allowing riders to float on the surface. Kids stay glued to the Ski Skooter thanks to its sturdy folding handle and non-skid surface. For ages 4 to adults up to 220 lbs.
