The Sky Ski web site was first developed by Cyber Sea, Inc. (our CD-ROM development is now handled by our new company Cyberi, Inc). The development environment alone contains over 2500 separate files for the site.

The web site contains a number of databases, an e-commerce system, a modified version of the Cybertrakker affiliate tracking system used to automate the signup of team riders. The site also includes video clips, photo galleries, HotMedia virtual product shots, IPIX 360 degree photography and more.

The web site has been rated one of the best watersports web sites on the Internet and has been instrumental in moving Sky Ski into the lead position in the industry. In just a few short years virtually all hydrofoils now seen in competition and in recreation are produced by Sky Ski.

The goal was to create a web site that promoted Sky Ski as the sports leading manufacturer of high performance hydrofoils and also would be the primary source of information for the sport of hydrofoiling.

Over the last few years Cyber Sea, Inc. has also shot most of the photography for Sky Ski for use in advertisements, magazines, multiple CD-ROMs and various other web sites.

The proposal sample for Sky Ski included with Proposal Pack has been updated to combine our previous web site proposal for Sky Ski with the recent integrated dealer CD-ROM proposal and the updated Proposal Pack materials.

Web site developers, CD-ROM developers, computer programmers, small and medium size business owners. Businesses selling customized services also utilizing 3rd party components.
