Sit Ski Equipment

Comp 1 Kanski - by Quickie Design/Sunrise Medical
This is a redesigned version of the original Comp-1. The ski is a good intermediate ski and can be used from beginner to competition level skiing. This ski comes with many inserts in the ski that allows for the adjustability to mount the cage and footplate in just the right spot. This makes the ski very useful for clinic use or to share with a friend. To locate the nearest Quickie retailer go to: www.sunrisemedical.com. The Kan Ski is also available at www.spinlife.com.

BMF (The “Bushy Ski”) - This ski is manufactured in Australia by Bushy Brown, who has been building race skis for more than 10 years. There are several sit skis available through BMF and imported by Spokes “n” Motion. Full details are available on its Web site at www.spokesnmotion.com.

Liquid Access - This is an intermediate to competition level ski. It is at home on the open water as well as the slalom course. The bevels on the ski are modified from traditional ski design and are said to give it superior edge changes and wake crossings. Call (321) 259-2868 or E-mail lnhest@aol.com or liquidaccess@aol.com.
