Abstract:
A multi-purpose ski/snowshoe, with a winged frame, an articulated foot plate, and interchangeable bottom surface plugs is described. The multi-purpose ski/snowshoe may be configured in several ways, including a short ski, a short ski with heel-plate brake, and a fully articulated snowshoe. It may be reconfigured by a combination of reversing the winged frame, inverting or interchanging the bottom surface plug, or adjusting the point of articulation. This provides a highly efficient device for foot-powered transportation over a wide variety of winter landscapes.
