    We've updated the Monique through the years, but our latest 7th gen solidifies the Monique as the ultimate beginner mono-ski by carrying over many of the improvements from our Dynamique revamp.  The Monique bridges the gap between bi-skis and mono-skis by increasing stability and forgiveness. A low ride height, chairlift loading assist, and simple adjustability all come together in a welcoming skiing experience.

    We've added an inch of suspension travel to the 7th gen Monique while keeping the ride height identical from earlier gens. With the introduction of our Pique Mono-ski for intermediate and advanced skiers, we aimed to position the Monique as a more budget conscious beginner offering. We did this by simplifying the suspension layout and supplementing the kinematics with a higher performing RockShox Vivid Ultimate Coil shock. The combined result is similar ski performance to earlier gens while being significantly easier to change spring weights for different weight skiers.

    The chairlift load height of the 7th gen Monique remains relatively unchanged from 5th and 6th gens, but new A-arms lessen forward tip pressure and improve balance in the up position. We've engineered in 30% more lift force making it easier than ever to lift into the up position. The Monique's signature "tensioned" load system that allows a skier to unlock before load and sit themselves down on the chairlift remains tried and true.

    Pilot tested with our Pique Mono-ski, the consistency of our new fiberglass clam shell seating systems allowed us to integrate a one piece seat bracket with all seats now mounting directly on rivnuts. The new standardized philosophy of the Dynamique, Monique and Pique means any of our fiberglass seat sizes can now be swapped amongst any of our current sit-skis in under a minute with only a common #3 Phillips screw driver.

    Efforts have been made to simplify maintenance, hardware has been aligned and rivets were eliminated on the skid plate updating it to a completely replaceable and bolt-on part. 

    All of these updates combine to our largest and most exciting generational revamp to date. Please feel free to contact us to learn our sales rep's demo schedule this winter or ask our engineer any technical questions.

    • Versatile Sizing: One frame size fits everyone from 4'1" to 6'3".
    • Lightweight: Built from aircraft grade aluminum, the complete ski weighs less than ___lbs with a size large seat.
    • Ride Height: Sitting under 12" off the ground the Monique is 3-6" lower than most modern mono skis which provides a stable and forgiving learning platform. The new 7th gen rides at the same height as earlier gens.
    • Adjustments: All adjustments use quick pins, clamps or threaded inserts to eliminate fumbling with nuts and wrenches. The new seat angle bracket uses larger bolts for adjusting seat angle to lessen the chances of cross threading while all seats now mount directly on rivnuts. The new standardized philosophy means any of our fiberglass seat sizes can be swapped in under a minute with a common #3 Phillips screw driver. The footrest is still made from durable thermoformed plastic but we've secured hold with a larger 2" wide strap. The footrest length is still adjusted along the horizontal axis so smaller skiers maintain a low center of gravity and taller skiers do not have to worry about the footrest bucketing out. The skier's ankle angle is quickly adjustable thanks to quick release clamps.
    • Kinematics: We've added an inch of suspension travel to the 7th gen Monique while simplifying the suspension layout. A high performance RockShox Vivid Ultimate Coil shock drives 125mm (5") of travel. The RockShox Vivid Ultimate Coil shock offers unprecedented tuning including the usual rebound, low / high speed compression while also adding hydraulic bottom out control. New A-arm geometry moves in a more predictable parallel manner. The combined result is similar ski performance to earlier gens while being significantly easier to change spring weights for different weight skiers.
    • Chairlift: The chairlift load height of the 7th gen Monique remains relatively unchanged from 5th and 6th gens, but the new A-arms lessen forward tip pressure and improve balance in the up position. We've engineered in 30% more lift force making it easier than ever to lift into the up position. The Monique's signature "tensioned" load system that allows a skier to unlock before load and sit themselves down on the chairlift remains tried and true. The Monique's chairlift load system moves the shock out of the way allowing the skier to sit all the way back against the chair while the industry’s largest skid plate facilitates getting on off. By moving the load components into the upper frame, we eliminated cables and better protected the system from snow and ice.
    • Clam Shell Seating System: Our infusion molded fiberglass seats are substantially stiffer, ski superior, and fit better than our original co-polymer plastic offerings. The Clam Shell Seating System has an adjustable back angle which is ideal for sit skis with chairlift loading systems, programs who fit many different skiers, and individuals dialing in their skiing. Convenient for programs, our Clam Shell Seating System is interchangeable between the Dynamique, Monique and Pique.
    • Boot Sole Length: A 325mm BSL aligns with the RESNA suggestion and is similar in size to many mono skis on the market including the Pique.
    • Accessories: Everything from outriggers to handles are available to help make your experience even better and can be found here. Footrests, handles and most accessories are interchange-able amongst all gens.
  • The Monqiue Mono-Ski comes with a variety of choices to accommodate a wide range of ability levels and unique customer needs. Below we provide insight and  recommendations to help you with those choices. 

    Seat

      • Our infusion molded fiberglass Clam Shell Seating Systems are substantially stiffer, ski superior, and fit better than our original co-polymer plastic offerings. The Clam Shell Seating System has an adjustable back angle which is ideal for sit skis with chairlift loading systems, programs who fit many different skiers, and individuals dialing in their skiing. Convenient for programs, our Clam Shell Seating System is interchangeable between the Dynamique, Monique and Pique.
      • No Seat (frame only) is perfect for programs with extra seats or individuals with their own seating system. 

    Seat Size

      • We measure seat size by the shell width at the hips. This measurement takes a thin liner and padding into account.

    Seat Back Setup

      • At 22" tall from the seat bottom, the High Back offering provides additional support for those who need it, while a relatively flatter back profile allows those who don't need it to still achieve separation without the sides digging in. It is a program conscious shape that allows one seat to better serve a wider range of individuals. The High Back has chest strap mounting provisions and includes a Limiter Strap. The Limiter Strap is a Velcro strap that provides a "set and forget" way to remember where the seat back angle was.
      • The Basic Chest Strap is an add on for the High Back. It can be adjusted up and down 2" in height to better match a skier's needs. Combined with the Limiter Strap the setup provides unprecedented shell support for skiers using chest restraints and allows these skiers to pressure the tip of the ski like never before with an adjustable seat.
      • At 14" tall from the seat bottom, the Low Back offering is a contoured choice for skiers with enough abdomen strength. It does not have chest strap mounting provisions. It does not include a Chest Strap or Limiter Strap.

    Frame Style

      • The High Frame style is our standard with tether locations and provisions for instructor handles. All High Frame Moniques come with a U-Loop Handle. The U-Loop Handle is for independent and tethered skiers who occasionally need a ski buddy's help in the lift line or flat sections of trail.
      • The HD High Frame style stands for "Heavy Duty". When paired with a T-Bar Quick Release Kit, mounting provisions are welded to the heavy duty frames that allow the Monique to be used with T-Bar Lifts. T-Bar Quick Release Kits are only available on HD frames.
      • The Low Frame style is recommended for independent skiers.

    Shock Spring Weight

      • The new simplified suspension layout of the 7th gen Monique means proper sag is more important. The Monique must be skied between 20-25% sag to provide enough bottom out support. This is different than the 30% we reccomend on our other sit-skis. Below are our recommendations. More aggressive skiers may find they enjoy jumping up a spring weight from recommended. We recommend programs with multiple seat sizes purchase 450lb, 550lb and 650lb spring weights to provide as many skiers as possible with the best skiing experience. The 7th gen Monique uses the same shock as the Pique allowing any springs you have for the Pique to be used with the 7th gen Monique.
      • Under 110 lbs = 350lb spring
      • 110 - 140 lbs = 450lb spring
      • 140 - 185 lbs = 550lb spring
      • 185 - 230 lbs = 650lb spring

    Footrest

      • 4’1” – 5’1” skier height = Small. The Small is different in that it attaches to the upper frame with tube clamps. It must be used with the additional U-Loop. The U-Loop provides structural protection to the frame.
      • 5’0” – 5’8” skier height = Medium. The Medium slides into the frame and has 4” of length adjustment.
      • 5-7” – 6’3”+ = Large. The Large begins one hole before where the medium footrest ends. Taller skiers can be accommodated by increasing the seat dump angle and tucking their knees more.

    Color

      • The standard color is Fire Red. The upper frame and A-Arms will be powder coated in this color. Standard color orders will come with red shock springs.
      • Select custom colors are available for a $100 surcharge. They include Seafoam, Quicksand, Green, Gold and Purple. Select custom color orders will come with red shock springs. This may add 1-3 weeks to orders.
      • Desire something else? The Dynamique can be custom powder coated other colors for $250. Specify in the notes box and we will contact you. When inventory allows, custom color orders will come with black shock springs if desired. This may add 2-4 weeks to orders.
      • Note: The load link and lower frame are anodized black. We do not offer powder coating on these parts.
  • The Monqiue has a user weight limit of 230 lbs. The Monique is covered under our Adaptive Skiing Equipment Warranty. While similar to earlier gens and other sit-skis, several key features make the 7th gen unique.
