Three’s a Crowd: The Dynamic Trio Performance
Trios is a combination of show skiing, gymnastics, and ice skating. Trios combos are made up of two skiers each on two skis. A bar may be used to add to the bevy of tricks that the third person (climber) can do while supported by the two base skiers. The bases take off from a seated dock start with the climber on one of them. The base skiers have their hands free after getting up similar to strap doubles. After leaving the dock successfully, the magic begins.
Skills Needed:
Bases must be strong skiers and comfortable with a climber on them. Climbers must be relatively fearless and strong enough to use the apparatus to enhance the beauty of the act.
Equipment Needed:
All needed equipment is available at the ski site.
