CXC-Salomon Super Fit Weekends
Mon, Aug 15, 2011 - By CXC Skiing
Get your cross country skis superbly fitted and selected on the state of the art 3D pressure mat by CXC Team athletes and coaches. CXC's 3D pressure mat is the most comprehensive ski analysis device available to consumers in the world. It provides dynamic 3D live imaging of how your skiing forces are distributed through a skis running surface as you move.
Simple in use and easy to understand with 5000 sensors under your skis that measure the skis pressure distribution 100 times per second. You move and simultaneously see the skis reaction in 3 dimensions on a flat screen display. You will leave your SuperFit fitting not only with superbly preforming skis but also with an in-depth understanding on how skis turn your kick and gliding motions into forward speed. This visualization and understanding will allow you to ski better as well.
CXC athletes and coaches help you find your perfect ski as they explain to you what different images mean and what makes a difference to you between a good ski and a great ski. This understanding and equipment plays an instrumental role in CXC's continued selection of the fastest skis for its athletes and these athletes continued success on the national and international levels and at the Birkie!
Each Super Fit Weekend is also about getting advice on technique, training and waxing. CXC athletes and coaches will also be on hand to complement the stores staff and assist you with boots selection and fitting, poles selection and length, ski apparel and wax box insights. You can also bring your old skis to learn what conditions they will ski the best and compare them to new skis side by side.
In addition to all listed above you will also find:
- Testing your ski fitness with Ski Erg (double pole machine)
