4-Track Skiing
Four tracks in the snow with two skis and two hand held outriggers or a device similar to a walker adapted for the snow, is what 4-tracking is all about. Mild Cerebral Palsy and people with strength and balance issues make the perfect 4-track candidate. The photo to the left shows off the "Snow Slider" which is also a popular method of 4-tracking!
