Discover the Gotoski: The unique solution for standing skiing with freedom
Gotoski: A new way to Ski standing up, accessible to everyone!
The Gotoski is a one-of-a-kind, patented machine that resembles a scooter mounted on two skis. Designed and manufactured in France, this exclusive innovation required over 2,000 hours of development to achieve optimal performance and safety, thanks to the use of high-quality and durable materials.
This invention allows individuals with physical, mental, or sensory disabilities to fully experience the thrill of standing skiing, safely and securely.
The Gotoski is accessible to both beginners and experienced skiers and can be used independently or with an accompanying guide, offering great flexibility to meet everyone’s needs.
Snowskut Offers Two Gotoski Models: Standard and Synchro
Both models have been carefully designed to meet the specific needs of each user. Thanks to their innovative design, they make standing skiing accessible to a wide audience, enabling everyone to enjoy the joys of gliding, regardless of their physical abilities or skill level.
With Gotoski, Snowskut is redefining access to standing skiing by offering an approach that combines safety, innovation, and enjoyment for all mountain enthusiasts.
Who is Gotoski for?
The Gotoski is designed to be accessible to as many people as possible: it allows standing skiing without the need to walk!
This complete and reliable equipment is aimed at individuals with physical, mental, or sensory disabilities, without distinction. The Gotoski is particularly suitable for users who can stand and have some mobility in their upper limbs. It is also accessible to those who can maintain this position for at least 30 seconds. With this inclusive design, users can safely enjoy standing skiing, accompanied by an instructor, and experience something close to the sensation felt by able-bodied skiers.
Over time and with practice, the Gotoski can also be used independently, allowing users to fully embrace the thrill of skiing and confidently navigate the slopes.
Not Just for Individuals with Disabilities!
The Gotoski is also suitable for able-bodied beginners, offering an ideal solution for a gradual introduction to alpine skiing. It provides a safe alternative for those who have not yet mastered standard skiing techniques or for situations where traditional skiing may not be suitable.
Finally, competitors and experienced skiers also appreciate the Gotoski for refining their skills. It offers a new perspective on the sensations of skiing and enhances balance control.
Snowskut offers two Gotoski models for standing skiing!

How does the Gotoski work?
The Gotoski is built on ingenious technology that takes full advantage of modern ski innovations. Its operation relies on an advanced articulated system designed to reproduce the eight essential movements needed to ski safely.
These eight critical positions ensure optimal stability on the skis, help maintain balance, evenly distribute weight, and prevent foot misalignment, guaranteeing a smooth and controlled glide.
Practically speaking, the Gotoski operates via handlebars connected to a central mast, securely mounted on the frame. This system allows intuitive steering, where your hands guide your feet: users effortlessly tilt the frame to turn left or right, mimicking the natural motions of alpine skiing. This unique design makes control easy and provides a smooth, secure skiing experience.
Is training required to ski with the Gotoski?
Yes, a one-day training session is strongly recommended to learn how to use the Gotoski optimally. This session helps users fully master the equipment and operate it safely on any type of slope.
A team of trainers certified by Snowskut will guide you through the day, teaching step-by-step techniques to develop the right habits and make the most of the Gotoski. This program is designed to ensure a quick and effective learning process, offering a rewarding and enjoyable skiing experience.
Additionally, an exclusive benefit is included: the Gotoski warranty extends from 2 to 3 years if you combine your equipment purchase with this training session.

Can a therapeutic program be implemented?
Yes, absolutely, and it is even encouraged by the Gotoski inventor, Marc Gostoli. Skiing standing up with the Gotoski provides a remarkable alternative to sitting skiing, offering both physical and psychological benefits.When standing on the machine, supported by the handlebars, the sensations are entirely different. From the very first runs, the vibrations caused by the skis’ contact with the snow stimulate the body and mind, helping release tension built up from prolonged sitting.
Once balance and self-confidence are regained, users can ski up to 1.5 hours in the morning and another 1.5 hours in the afternoon, rediscovering the unique pleasures and sensations of alpine skiing.
Numerous testimonials confirm that skiing with the Gotoski is not only beneficial for the body but also uplifting for the mind. This energizing and empowering activity is suitable for a wide range of disabilities, thanks to the two models offered by Snowskut: Standard and Synchro.
On which ski slopes can you use the Gotoski?
The Gotoski is certified, allowing you to fully enjoy skiing on all slopes—green, blue, red, or black. Off-piste skiing is also possible, provided you are accompanied by a mountain guide to ensure your safety.
Which ski lifts can be used?
Many ski resorts in France and across Europe have adapted their infrastructure to make their areas accessible to all.
With the Gotoski, you can use most ski lifts, especially chairlifts, which are particularly well-suited for this equipment.
