A training device for skiers includes an inverted V-shaped support defining an apex. One leg is rotatable about an upwardly inclined axis along a first angle and the other leg extends at a different angle from the apex. The free end of the other leg supports a platform for supporting the skier\s feet. The other leg together with the platform swing in pendulum fashion about the apex and seek an equilibrium position under the action of gravity when the skier is not on the platform.

A free-swiveling training device for skiers under training which comprises the combination of a base adapted to be disposed on a support surface, an elongate generally V-shaped member having one leg portion of the V-shaped member carried by the base and extending therefrom along an upwardly inclined first axis defining a first acute angle with respect to the support surface, the elongate angled member having a second leg portion substantially coplanar with the first leg portion and joined to said one leg portion and extending therefrom along a second axis defining a second acute angle with respect to the support surface with the V-shaped member disposed in a substantially vertical plane, pivot means for pivoting the one leg portion for free rotation about said first axis, a platform carried by a free end portion of the second leg portion and upon which a skier while training may place his feet in simulation of a skiing stance, the platform being disposed above the second leg portion when the leg portions define an inverted V shape in a substantially vertical plane, the inverted V shape allowing the second support part to swing freely about said first axis to a centered position along a concave upwardly extending arcuate path under the influence of gravity and position the platform above the second support part when a skier is not disposed on the platform, and permitting the freely-swinging second leg portion and the platform to swing back and forth relative to the base along the concave arcuate path to simulate body lean during skiing when the skier shifts body weight on the platform.
