This has worked well for my two-year old. He doesn't have the leg control to keep his skis from coming apart or crossing, but he wants to 'ski fast'. This, with a harness, gets us all out on the mountain together as a family. It stays attached to the skis really well (better than I imagined) and I only had to adjust it once in a whole day of skiing and after using it as a 'hook' to hang his skis on mine outside the lodge. It's very easy to put on and take off (even with gloves), so adjusting it was no problem. It does make a little mark on the bottom of the ski but that should come off when the skis get tuned. It didn't harm the top of the ski - important since we are leasing our skis for the season.

Got these for both kids to help them maintain the pizza formation and stay in control going down the mountain. The clips stayed on really well with this version of ski (with little rubber lip) but they did occasionally fall off my daughters since her skis were a little thinner and didn't have the rubber lip. Other than that, they are very sturdy and made teaching them a breeze (relatively).

Very pleased with Wedgease. Just took twin 7 yr olds, a 5 yr old, and a 3 yr old to the slopes. Bought two Hookeases (see the other Launch Pad product of that name) and a few Wedgeases for 7 year olds. My wife and I taught our twins from nothing to self-sufficiency within a handful of runs on the bunny slopes, with neither needing the Hookease after just an hour or so. Our son also dropped the Wedgease almost immediately while our daughter kept the Wedgease on for most of the first day. But by the end of the morning, one adult could easily manage both kids up the lift and down the hill, and they were really enjoying their progress. We stayed on the bunny slopes to build confidence that day, but by day 2 they were on the bigger lifts to the top of the mountain (still taking greens down) and by day 3 they were on those same lifts and tackling the occasional blue run.5 year old. After the first morning focused on the twins, I then moved on to my 5 yr old daughter on the first afternoon, and after two brief afternoon sessions (day 1 and day 2) with the Hookease/Wedgease, she was self-sufficient on the bunny slopes (no Hookease or Wedgease needed) but I would have been hesitant to launch her on bigger hills at that point without either piece of gear; in particular, she really liked having the Wedgease in place so her legs would not as taxed keeping the skis in a proper v-shape. That said, a little more dedicated attention and she would have managed the bigger green hills without difficulty.3 year old. Finally, at the end of day 3, I took out my 3 yr old son (turned 3 a few months ago) for two runs on the bunny slopes. With so many other kids to manage (I haven't mentioned our 11-month old yet!), and with skiing an infrequent family activity, I was not interested in actually getting him up the learning curve at 3.25 yrs of age. But I thought a little exposure would be useful. With Hookease and Wedgease in service, I had no real problem getting him down the slope, and he loved it. My only comment here is that, since he was providing limited assistance with ski positioning on his own, it took a fair amount of effort from my arms and especially wrists to move him around (if I needed to adjust his direction from the natural slope of the hill). Of course, he was oblivious to this modest strain and just loved 'beating' his accommodating older sister in the race down the hill.Other notes.- I saw harnesses and other stuff on the slopes and my combination (Hookease/Wedgease) was clearly the best option. Ski instructors from the mountain routinely asked about the gear and were impressed with it -- same with dozens of other onlookers including exasperated parents holding their kids between their skis.- My wife and I are fairly proficient skiers but certainly not experts. You need to have some basic skiing proficiency and, depending on the kid's size and weight, a little bit of arm strength. But these are truly low hurdles, IMO.- Wedgease (or any sort of equipment like it) were not allowed on the ski lift itself, so I had to transfer one clamp to the ski of the other clamp (ie, both clamps on the same ski) each lift line, and then re-clamp on the other ski upon getting off the lift at the top of the hill. Given the ease of the clamping process, this was not a big deal; it would have been very annoying if the attachment process were not as simple.

Amazing tool for teaching kids. As others have said I had taken my 5 year old 3 times just flat out exhausted with tow ropes and holding him between my legs and he couldn't not figure out how to pizza and get down hill on his own. Put these on and first time down he was making great pizza shapes and going down the hill all by himself. If you haven't bought this you need to.2 cautions though- (1) plastic if you ski over it, it can break easily - we've used 3 times and one of the clips the very top of latch handle broke off as he skied over my skis. But it still works fine. (2) the way it grips the ski it will slightly damage the base of the ski - leaves the metal gripping marks into the end of skis but if you like me and buy used skis it's well worth it knowing after a few times of using this they are ready to go. You would need to re-wax skis to fix this. I will try to add a pic to show this.A great $10-$15 investment. Will be using on my other kids as they learn as well.

Product is of very poor quality. The design is faulty and the clips break very easy. My broke the very first time I tried to put Wedgease on skies. I was not even on the slope yet. I tried them in garage to learn how to use them later. Did not help and the clip cracked instantly.

Game changer! They hold my daughters ski tips together and made learning to ski so much easier. Also prevents the skis from crossing.

Utilissimi per aiutare il bambino a fare spazzaneve.Facili da attaccare e staccare.Resistenti!Molto soddisfatta

Sehr gute Handhabung.Hat toll funktioniert beim Skifahren.Erste Schritte bei einem 5 Jährigen Kind.Die Ski rutchen nicht so auseinander.Bei uns hat es Super funktioniert.Absollut weiter zu empfehlen.

Fabulous product - essential piece of kit for young kids learning to ski. As a ski instructor I highly recommend this. I feel at £29 it is a hefty price, but couldn't work without it.
