It’s usually a steep learning curve that leads you to becoming an intrepid skier, but luckily there’s a sort of a shortcut in the form of an innovative machine called Yooner. It’s a seemingly odd seat-equipped stainless steel ski that actually works similarly to a snow cart. While sitting just 20 cm above the ground during the ride, you’re offered gliding sensations close to that of skis, with much lower risk of breaking your neck (at least in theory). Yooner is light and easy to handle, and it comes with a shock absorber for even greater beginner-friendliness.
