ski with bc?

gabetheunicycleman said:

ok. ive had a boring week and have been daydreaming in class. i got
thinking, has anyone ever gone down a ski slope (with snow) on a bc.?
and to stop it from rolling down the hill when you fall, bolt snowboard
bindings to your plates, and strap your snowboard boots to them.

any feedback reguarding how crazy i am, any problems, or if youve done
it would be appreciated.

It isn't crazy, i want to try it someday. Does that make me crazy? 😄
😄 Yeah maybe. haha 😄 You should try it. If it turns out successful,
it may become a new sport. Something like *BCing* (as in BC skiing 🙂)
or these *BSF* (BC Skiing Fresstyle) BST (BC Skiing Trials)

Take care

Nothing is impossible unless you say it is and in a way it can work.
Just put ski chains or caterpillar tracks on it. 😄 😄 😄

why wouldnt the wheel turn?

over where you live your snow is powdery and fluffy, so that may be
why.

but over here in australia, our snow is wet and compact, none of that
fluffy goodness. a wheel would definatly roll down our ski fields well.

I was thinking about this to just my idea was a little different. My
idea was to get a ski about three foot long and take just the hub and
plates instead of the whole wheel. I don't know if it would work or
not but I might try it one day

if you used a 24" wheel with a very low pressure filled 3" tire, there
is no reason it couldn't work, depending on the snow conditions

don't worry bout the crazy part, you ride a unicycle😄

just make sure to put a fat knobbly tyre on your bc before hitting the
snow!
this sounds like a lot of fun, but will the resort let you on the lift?

whats a *BC* ?? Your idea sounds sorta like mine, i want to put
a ski on the bottom of my wheel, and try to make it downt the run.
Someone said that i would want the bearings to be fixed, but i was
thinkin to properly carve you would need to move the seat all over the
place....

I have had this bc ski idea for a really long time now. I have a
design for the bcski, but just havn't motivated myself to actual build
one, probably because i don't live near the snow. I was just going to
make one for all the bc wheelers out there on unicyclist.com. Just
reading this makes me want to put time aside and start building the
bcski beacuse i didn't know so many knew of this idea. Just as Ricky
was saying, it involves one ski. This ski would either be a freestyle
based ski or a ski board ski (wide skis). (Both skis are very short).
The ski board has a nice 4 bolt pattern to construct the vertical frame
which the bc plates would attatch to. has anyone thought of this type
of setup before?
