Ski Bikes?!

I always tell them to buy skis and or heckle them on hill. They gouge the runs with their feet like a bunch of pussies then think their dope for trynna work their mtb skills. Fuckin mountain bikers who ride on snow are almost worse tho.
 
i have a fucked up brake on my outside left ski and ski bikers point it out to me in the lift line every fucking time

Why's that a bad thing? I had someone react weird when I pointed out their buckle (the strap part) on his Full Tilts wasn't strapped/broken. All I was doing was pointing it out in case he didn't know. It's easy to break something during a run and not notice it right away. Hell I've broken a ski before and it took two features (rail and maybe a 30 footer) before I noticed lol.
 
Ski bikes like those are nowhere near comparable to biking. As a mountain biker i think those are stupid, because you're sitting down and you don't have to turn the bike to turn really, its just like snowblading but with a chunk of metal under your legs. However, proper ski bikes, like Snogo, those are sick. Watch video to see what I mean.
 
Sled dogs and the big would make a good combo.... should be in the x games!!!!

Actually sled dogs and snow bikes should also be in the olympics with half pipe, slope style and big air .... c’mon guys let’s make this happen!!!!!!!
 
I feel like the kind with two blades (representing two wheels) are pretty legit for mountain bike / bmx cross training. This kind:
=238 You also aren't strapped in, which adds to the difficulty and also makes it more comparable to mtb. Just because they have a seat doesn't mean you should use it, just like a bmx bike, or a DH bike.

But the Snowgo ones don't make sense to me. They are tricycles that your feet are strapped into (they use snowboard boots and a foot cage). Trikes are not the same as bikes. 3 points of contact versus 2. When you look at the Trike versions they just look like snowblades with a third blade out front, so even easier than snowblades since you have a tripod (no need to balance) and they also keep your blades locked perfectly parallel for you. They are probably great for getting people on snow who are uncoordinated and want something easy and accessible to slide snow on. My favorite is when I see someone on one of those trikes do a manual, congrats you are now ski blading.
