Abstract: A ski stabilizing and training device used in combination with a pair of skis to assist a novice skier in learning to ski includes a metal coil spring which acts as an orienting and spacing device for the tip portions of the pair of skis. A pair of attachment members removably attach the metal coil spring to the ski tip portions. The metal coil spring maintains a desired spacing of the skis with the ski tip portions pointed inward. The metal coil spring is of sufficient stiffness to prevent crossing of the ski tip portions while skiing.

Abstract: A platform board is shown which allows a small child or infant to learn the art of water skiing. The platform is wide enough to accommodate at least the width of two foot grips located on an upper surface of the platform. A handle bar extending upwardly from the upper surface of the platform from a location in front of the foot grips. The handle bar includes a grip portion which can be adjusted to lie in a horizontal plane at a height which allows the grip portion to be conveniently gripped by a small child or infant. The platform board is manufactured similarly to a surf board that will support the weight of a child prior to acceleration of an associated towing craft.

Abstract: An apparatus is shown which allows a small child or infant to perform a gliding sport on water. The apparatus includes a platform having an upper surface, a lower surface, a thickness, a front extent and a rear extent, the platform being wide enough to accommodate at least the width of two feet. A pair of foot grips are located on the upper surface of the platform. A handle bar extending upwardly from the upper surface of the platform from a location in front of the foot grips. The handle bar includes a grip portion which lies in a horizontal plane at a height which allows the grip portion to be conveniently gripped by a small child or infant. A tow point is located at the front extent of the platform for receiving a tow rope for pulling the platform over a surface of water.
