It's simple, effective, and first-time skiers love the sense of freedomIntroduce the basics and ensure a happy first-time experience on the slopes without the frustration of awkward techniques and cumbersome body harnesses that upset balance and don't develop core skills.
CoPilot's elasticized reins secure the learner's boots and leave the upper body free, encouraging learners to find and maintain their natural center of gravity.
Teachers experience real steering control while the beginner discovers balance independently.
This technique encourages learners to turn with their skis and lower body, and readily adopt a correct body stance for skiing. While providing direct steering control for the teacher, Copilot lets beginners really feel the freedom of skiing.
FEATURES:
- easy-to-use Velcro boot straps
- simple to clip on and off
- elasticized straps for smooth handling
- bright color provides excellent visibility for safety
- easy stowing for the lifts with convenient carry bag
- optional ski-tip links included to prevent skis from crossing
TOW AND SAVE ENERGY FOR THE SLOPES!
Essential for little ones who tire easily, towing is also a great beginner exercise that actively engages muscles as the skier works to establish and maintain balance control.

HOW IT WORKS
CoPilot Ski Trainer secures the skier’s base of support while leaving the upper body and centre of mass free to establish balance independently. This technique provides accurate directional control for the instructor, while letting the learner feel the freedom of skiing.
Wrap Velcro straps on each boot with metal ring facing backward
Clip CoPilot rein onto the metal ring of each boot strap
...and you’re ready to go!
Choose an uncrowded easy run - and leave your ski poles behind
Hold reins firmly in both hands with some slack, and start down the slope
Check speed by slowing down and pulling in reins
Guide turns by GENTLY pulling back reins, avoiding abrupt movements
Pull back on the right rein to facilitate a right turn, and pull back the left rein for a left turn. The gentle rearward manipulation of the reins encourages the skier to shift balance from one ski to the other, thus facilitating turns in either direction.
TOWING
Rotate boot strap rings forward and clip on the CoPilot reins.
Tow the beginner along flat snow surfaces at the base of the mountain or up gentle inclines.
