We've had BMX. Then there was KMX. Now there is SMX. The SMX ski-trike from Norway lets riders pull BMX-style tricks on the snow but has skis instead of wheels. It will be commercially available in Autumn 2006 and has just won the BrandNew Award at Europe outdoor trade show ISPO in Munich, due to be staged at the end of the month.
