An improved snow vehicle ski wherein a rear wheel is disposed relatively close to a spindle pivot point, allowing the snow ski to rotate around the spindle pivot point with less steering effort and still providing for proper weight distribution and ski balance. A front wheel is disposed forwardly of the rear wheel and the spindle pivot point. Placement of the front wheel is important as the front wheel encounters obstacles first and needs to protect the rest of the ski and its associated suspension assembly parts by absorbing impact and shock to such parts. The front wheel location is also important for proper weight distribution, handling and steering of the machine. The front wheel also acts as a lever, as it helps turn the snow ski around the spindle pivot point, providing for less steering effort by the user. Further, the wheels can have a rubber surface or a hard and sharp surface. The wheels can also combine a hard inner core surrounded by a deformable and shock-absorbing rubber surface. The snow vehicle ski can be used with a snow vehicle assembly having one or two skis.
