have seen 4 and 5 yr olds on boards, younger skiing...last year this patroller had some little bindings mounted (t-bolted) between his legs and had his 2-3 year old son standing in the bindings and son's arms wrapped around dad's knees...they were cruising the groomers...pretty cool and the little guy seemed to be quite happy...what a way to get used to the speed, rhythm and motion. Skier friend has a 6? month old baby he just puts in the back carrier and off they go...he says the
extra weight in back helps when doing back flips.
