Looking forward for the ski supercharger at Mad River

I know the first thing I would do with a one of a kind prototype ski would be to shred through a dirty parking lot!
-
Nice touch with the electric servo audio dub!
-
This is one of the greatest April fools jokes(sorry, very serious product launches) that I have ever seen, the sound effects are amazing.
-

I was able to get a pair from the local Tesla dealer that had some connections. I used them to go uphill at a ski resort and the patrol kicked me off the mountain because they said I was a hazard and needed a lift ticket. Did some backcountry skiing, which worked well on well settled snow, but they bog down in any kind of soft snow and will only climb a low intermediate level slope. Packed snowmobile track on a road works great.

Now I don’t need back country bindings!

Is this a really well crafted April Fool's joke?
-
I call demo dibs! 😂 Happy April fools! I need these though cause we are in government camp OR on Mt Hood for Spring break and i want to ski Multapor Ski Bowl 1 block away tonight!
-
Ive been saying we need these for years so we dont have to give vail all our money to use their lifts. This is the first step to dissassembling the vail empire and bring back ski culture good job J ski ;)

Just found the spec sheet online. Each ski has 20 micro motors embedded in the P-Tex base. The white top sheet is a semi-hardened solar collector with a new Tesla invention that directs captured charge into battery that runs under the collector sheet. As the ski travels down a slope the micro motors switch to generator mode to recharge the battery.

We had those in the1970,s but the car batteries in a backpack were tough to balance with. I found if you wore Astral Tunes on your front, it sort of balanced out!!

Congratulations, this is the funniest April fools video I've seen!!

-

I was 2/3 of the way through the video and really trying to figure out how this works when I realized what day it is. Haha!
-
