A skid shoe assembly for use on a snow thrower includes a bracket having a mounting portion configured to couple to the snow thrower and a support portion extending outwardly from the mounting portion. The skid shoe assembly also includes an insert including an annular body having a central aperture and a linear section configured to engage a ground surface. The central aperture receives the bracket so that the annular body is disposed around the mounting portion of the bracket. A portion of the annular body is configured to be captured between the support portion of the bracket and the snow thrower to secure the insert to the snow thrower.

A ski for a snow vehicle has a ski body having an upper surface and a lower surface. The lower surface has a lift surface and a central runner. The central runner extends along a length of the ski body. The central runner depends from the ski body below the lift surfaces. There is a spindle with a first end and a second end. A ski attachment attaches the first end of the spindle to the ski body. The ski attachment has a pivot point that is positioned below a portion of the lift surface and in line with the central runner.

The present invention relates to a process of manufacturing skiing equipment using a high-entropy alloy, especially manufacturing for a bottom member of a ski, a blade of an ice skate shoe or the bottom member of a skiing vehicle. The high-entropy alloy is used to prepare skiing equipment, so that the skiing equipment has a small friction coefficient, obtains good speed, and can be driven with less energy, which realizes energy-saving effect.

A snow ski assembly for a snow vehicle includes a ski body, a ski spindle, a ski stopper and a ski keel pressure adjuster. The ski body has an upper surface with a ski spindle attachment and a bottom surface with a keel. The ski spindle has a lower end pivotally connected to the ski spindle attachment of the ski body about a pivot axis. The ski stopper is disposed between the upper surface of the ski body and the lower end of the ski spindle. The ski keel pressure adjuster includes at least one adjustment member and at least one user input. The at least one adjustment member is movably disposed with respect to the ski body between a first position in which the ski stopper has a first compression characteristic and a second position in which the ski stopper has a second compression characteristic. The at least one user input is operatively coupled to the at least one adjustment member to move the at least one adjustment member in response to operation of the at least one user input.
