From the very first minute of using this, my 3-year-old was able to ski independently – which was amazing to see. It was such a contrast to the thigh-burning, exhausting effort of skiing with him between my legs!

You could immediately see his confidence building – first in balancing, then in forming a proper pizza stance. On steeper sections, the leads attached to the skis allowed us to control his speed while still giving him the feeling of skiing on his own and properly experiencing his turns.

Having learnt how to do pizzas, he was able to start turning independently within just three days.

I would highly recommend this product to any parents teaching young children to ski.

Thank you Alain for your help this afternoon when I crashed the last 200m of a step run. I really appreciated your help, patience and knowledge of skiing to get me down the mountain. I don't think I could of done it without you.

I used the uSki with my 4 year old son on his very first day of skiing. I found that the uSki enabled my son to ski much more independently, rather than between my legs, and it enabled us both to ski down easy slopes with more ease. I found it quick to learn and easy to control him, with no bending down needed. I feel my son will have got more of a feel for skiing in this way and he enjoyed it so much he was asking to use it again the following day.

Uski really helped my 4 year old daughter to learn to ski with confidence on her first ski week. After three days she was confident enough to ski down a blue piste with the uski removed! I recommend highly.

Thanks to Alain for introducing us to the uski while on our family holiday in Avoiriaz.
Our daughter Isla is 4 and a complete beginner. Alain was great at helping her relax and feel confident to ski using a snowplough, controlling her speed and making turns on the gentle blue slopes.
We really enjoyed teaching Isla in this unique way. It was a great boost to her confidence and allowed her to make quick progress.
I would absolutely recommend this product for other families with young children.
Thank you 👍🏻🇬🇧

We rented as set for our daughter at 6 years. It was her first skiing trip, and with the support from the system and easy approach she learned the basis fast!
The system gives a real feeling of skiing, and support the rider to not cross og split the skis.
End of the week she could ski without the system. 😊
I give my full recommendations!

A really good design that helped my son learn to ski all by himself. He was really confident as a result and was able to move about the slope on his own. Would highly recommend it to others.

We tested the device on our (almost) 4 year old grandson. This was his second day on skis.
I have used other types of these on my own children that worked averagely. However, with this device connecting directly to the skis, it was much easier to guide while still giving the majority of control to the child. Allows the child to learn naturally without having to forcefully direct their movements. Device is one size fits all and is easy to attach. It is also much easier on the handler for guiding and the inevitable pulling across flat sections.
After even just one use, he is already skiing much better independently and able to make basic turns without the device attached. Would recommend this product to others looking to teach their young ones to ski.

In January 2022 my child of 3 years has skied with Uski for 2 weeks. It is the most fantastic device to learn your child how to safely ski. As a parent/guidant you have control to make sure that your child goes down the slope safely, but still the child learns how to ski. I can really recommend this device, its a must! We where in Les Crosets and the owner of the product gave us such good help, so kind.

A great piece of equipment that support correct ski posture and balance whilst allowing the parent to ensure the child skis safely. After one run with it my daughters confidence and technique was significantly and noticeably improved!

uSki is a brilliant system! It helped our 7 year old son who was a complete beginner gain confidence on skis really quickly. I was able to manage his speed and guide him through turns really easily. We were able to ski on far more challenging slopes together than if I was just holding him between my legs or if he was holding on to my poles. In less than two days with the uSki, he learned to ski independently and turn with good control. It is also a really useful system to help a child along flat parts of the slopes as moving in front of the child allows you to pull him or her along almost effortlessly. Alain was super helpful. He took the time to show me how to install the system which is quite straight-forward and he even modelled how to use it by skiing with us down a couple of slopes. I would highly recommend uSki to anyone teaching a beginner to ski. Thank-you Alain!

Our experience was the best. Alain, our instructor was very precise and accurate with his indications through the class and the uSki device is very useful to begin the training. It helps not to fall as you learn the basics. When removed, you can tell it was a lot of help.

Our class was on a Sunday and it the track was a little crowded which made it a bit difficult, I would recommend to have this classes in week days. Also the rope lift is kind of hard to use without the proper gloves as it becomes slippery and very hard to hold to trough the end of the slope.

I totally recommend the method and Alain!

I had the experience of skiing with Alain this morning with the Uski.
This is a great idea for the beginner, gives the feeling of being safe and secure on skis.
I believe this will be a great help to learning for all age groups.
Thank you Alain for your time!

Amazing system!
We tried the uSki system on Hannah (girl, 5 years old, first time skiing) in Avoriaz. The system was amazing. noting less. Just after mounting the uSki system - Boom, we went from going up and down the small children's piste to a much longer easy blue piste, taking the chairlift ect. It was an immediate 500% improvement for Hannah, and her dad. With the system you can ski in a normal position behind the child and still control speed and assist with turns.
The uSki system is not complete magic - but almost.
Father: Christian - been skiing for 30 years
Hannah: child, 5 years old - first time skiing.

Lucas tried the uski after not being confident and only wanting to hold onto my pole. After a few runs with the uski he really built his confidence and was eager to just go up and down the junior slope. Extremely useful!

My daughter was very thrillled with her first ski experience in Avoriaz. We are sooo happy that we were able to ski with our 3,5 year old daughter and to have an opportunity to meet Alain to get some insights and instruction. What a great invention! We would recommend to try/use the uSki to everyone.

Helped with teaching my friends for the first time.
This was such a massive help to quickly progress teaching some of my friends. I found it helped them get up onto the mountain quicker than would have been possible without them.

They took a little bit of time to get used to but once you do then i feel like as an instructor you can be behind them and look after people safer than any other methods that are currently out there.

I'd highly recommend them to others wanting to learn and others wanting to teach people.

I had an amazing experience with Alain, he is a great instructor, it was only my second day skiing and we went to the mountains. There we were using his awesome equipment that helped me a lot to feel more confident. I recommend 100% this experience, I couldn't be happier.
Obrigada!

Perfect system. I used it with my twins for the first time skiing. It looks like they can ski already. It’s also possible to use it on steeper slopes. A small adjustment can be made with easing out the rope. It would be good if there is more friction when easing out the rope.

I was trying uSki with my 3 year old daughter. It was very well explained to us. Immediately, she liked the system! In a couple of days, she made immense progress. She learned how to deaccelarete and we managed to go longer slopes.
Also for me it was nice, having more control and safety over her. And also, as I am tall, it was nice for my back, could ski upright.
uSki is a perfect innovation!
