The monoski launched in the 1980s enjoyed its heyday in the days of fluorescent lighting, ski suits and Citroën BXs. A little obsolete (like the BX), it gave way to snowboarding in the early 90's. It owes its survival only to a core of die-hard practitioners and manufacturers. It is becoming fashionable again, even Faction is starting to produce monoskis.

The shape of the monoskis has also evolved well. We now have carving monoskis and bi-spatulate monoskis.

If you want to be the king of Defifoly and the fastest in powder, monoskiing is for you.
