We have a growing pool of equipment that can be used by both beginners and experienced skiers. We will continue to add to this equipment pool when we can.
The Bi-Unique is used by almost all adaptive programmes around the world. It has set the standard for beginner sit skis and gives you the ability to ski as independently as your experience and ability allows! With the lowest centre of gravity of any sit ski on the market, the Bi-Unique is easy to manoeuvre even for high-level injuries. The Bi-Unique was developed over 20 years ago and continues to be a resilient, versatile and durable bi-ski.
The Tessier Tempo Dualski is intended to people who have a lower limb disability. It allows skiing independently with remarkable performances and is much more than a biski. Easy to ski, it is quickly handled and allows a fast improvement. The fully suspended frame allows skiing efficiently and it will completely satisfy experienced skiers. This kind of equipment is not only for people with limited use of their legs, but also especially for people with severe or multiple disabilities, including children, since it can be guided. It‘s the perfect option for people with low capacities, to experience skiing.
If you are looking for an easy sitski without limiting your desire to escape, the Tempo Dualski is made for you.
The Tessier Tempo monoski, also called the ‘Tempo Uniski’, is a full-suspension sit-ski designed for people with lower limb disabilities, allowing them to ski independently and with remarkable performance.
