Self-Propelled Skiing

By Angela Shupe on January 2, 2013 in Featured

When there is snow on the ground and the roads are icy, most people would stay at home. However, Russian inventor, Sergei Khvalin, thought of a better idea. When the ground is covered, he gets out his homemade propeller and a pair of ski’s. After strapping it to his back, he uses it to ski down the road.

According to The Telegraph, his device was made using a small lawnmower motor, a handmade propeller, and various parts from a paraglider.
