Confused boarder
Diva in Training
Just ordered a Skiers Edge after the rep brought one over for me to try. Awesome workout and is going to take me a while to be able to do more than a couple of minutes at a time. What I didn't get from watching videos online but the rep showed me is that if you slow it down and hold each "turn" then its like holding a carve turn. The videos just seem to show people rapidly bouncing side to side, which I guess has it's own benefits, particularly hopefully for being quicker in the bumps and trees, but I definitely felt slowing down the movements meant a much stronger muscle work out and felt way closer to how I normally ski. They're expensive but given how much I spend on ski trips every year I kinda see it as money (hopefully) well spent as it'll let me hit the slopes with better ski-specific fitness each time and hopefully be able to do full days from day 1 without ending up wallowing in DOMS afterwards. Plus seems good for the whole upper/lower body separation. Will see how it goes.
