Abstract: A downhill-ski training apparatus has a pair of like elongated ski beams each having a rear end carrying a respective foot pads and a front end connected to a stationary base at a swivel for movement of each the beams on the base about a respective vertical axis and a respective generally horizontal axis generally parallel to the respective beam so that each beam can be pivoted about its respective vertical axis from a center position with its rear end on a central region of a track to two flanking side positions with its rear end on side regions of the track. Respective elongated elastically extensible spring elements each have a rear end fixed to the rear end of the respective beam and a front end to the front side of the base and a middle part extending around a deflecting member that urges the beams toward the respective center positions and resists movement into the side positions with a force increasing as distance from the center position increases.
