Notes

Sit-Down Skiing - Non-ambulatory skiers with advanced forms of cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, Spina Bifida, double-leg amputees or those who have suffered traumatic brain injuries are able to ski, while sitting down in adaptive equipment. These disabilities often affect standing, leg strength, and/or balance.

The bi-ski, mono-ski, and twin ski are examples of adaptive equipment for students who cannot stand or maintain balance for an extended period of time, if at all.
