Snake luge, airboarding and yooner are three options that are becoming more and more popular. Each offers a very distinct style. Here is something to help you make the right choice according to your desires.

Do you like sliding at ground level? Airboarding is made for you

Description

An airboard is an inflatable sled on which you lie with your head forward. We steer by playing with our body weight, like on a snow bodyboard.

Sensations

Very fast, it offers total proximity to the snow and provides amazing sensations of speed and carving. It is an original, dynamic and intuitive activity.

For whom?

Accessible to everyone from the age of 12, airboarding will appeal to curious people as well as fans of different types of skiing, regardless of their level or experience.

Do you prefer a seated and accessible glide? The yooner is perfect

Description

The yooner looks like a small seat mounted on a short ski. It steers with the weight of its body by tilting when cornering.

Sensations

Comfortable and fluid, the yooner allows a smooth glide with good control. It is similar to sitting skiing, but without the technical aspect.

For whom?

Ideal for families, children from 8 years old, or adults who want to have fun without taking risks. Activity that is easy to learn and accessible to all.
