Skibobbing (also called skibiking or snowbiking) is a winter sport involving a bicycle-type frame attached to skis instead of wheels and sometimes a set of foot skis. The use of foot skis is what defines "skibobbing".[1]

Although skibobs are often called ski bikes or snow bikes,[2] they are different, and the sport should also not be confused with snowbiking,[2] which is the sport or recreation of bicycling on snow.

Type-1 skibobs have minimal to no suspension. The rider sits on the seat and foot skis are used for control.

Type-2 bikes, also known as "peggers", are similar in design to a mountain bike which usually has full suspension but utilizes the foot pegs and are generally operated standing up. Also called "freestyle" ski bikes.

Type-3 bikes, or 'Trikes' have 1 ski in the front and 2 in the back and are considered more stable and easier to ride.
