With our retractable skis, you will be able to land almost anywhere. Take off from a clean paved runway and lower your skis to land on snowy fields.  

Use the skis to take off from snow and then retract them to use cleared runways and taxiways at the local airport.

Retractable skis also make it much easier to get your plane out of the hangar.   

 
Use the wheels to roll the plane out onto snow, flip a switch to lower the skis and you're ready to take off.

Our mechanisms are strong enough that they can be activated while you are in your plane with your passenger.

 
We've been developing our ski package for seven years.  Nine prototypes and our Mk1 production versions have been extensively flight tested.  

Our new, Series 1000 skis benefit from this testing, providing the best ultralight ski package that money can buy.
