Wedge Lock

The Wedge Lock is a spacer bar that holds a child's ski boots apart while the Tip Lock holds the ski tips together, thus locking a child into the wedge position. And the wedge position gives a child more stability, helps control speed, and helps with turning. The bar connects and disconnects very easily with one click of a buckle on each of the bootstraps. The Wedge Lock allows parents to use a Ski Leash 1-2 years earlier than otherwise (by age 2) because of the added stability. Never use the Wedge Lock without a Tip Lock.

NOTE: You may review the 5-step "KID-SKI Learning Progression" to understand when to use which combinations of teaching aids. Just click on the green blinking graphic below ("All About KID-SKI"); then click on item # 7 in the contents box. However, the KID-SKI Instructional DVD also goes over the Learning Progression in detail.
