Ski Trak Developer of Dry Slope Facilities. U.K
rotating;(Moving Mountains, Magic Carpets, Ski Machines, Ski Decks )
as they are sometimes called.A conveyor type rolling carpet powered by an electric motor. The simulator replicates movement over snow via a
specially coated Nylon carpet and a modified ski or
snowboard base ( Nylatron ). This allows you to carve as if on one-half
inch of freshly groomed packed powder snow.
The carpet nap is usually very dense creating positive
resistance.The positive resistance forces the skier or rider to
carve turns and learn consistent edging, pressure, steering and
biomechanics.
Skiers and Riders of all abilities will see their skills advance
quickly through these goal-orientated programs based on
progressive instruction techniques.
Beginners
Learn to use your equipment in a warm, comfortable setting.
Discover the basics of stopping, turning, and more in preparation
for a fun day in the snow.
Intermediate If you understand the basics of skiing
or snowboarding,lessons will help you develop the skills
necessary to become more advanced. Learn to carve turns with a
quiet upper body, which will help you to be more efficient, use
less energy and have better control.
Advanced Refine your skills while getting a great
work-out with exercises for bumps, steeps, powder and racing. Top
racers use the revolving carpet to hone their edge sensitivity,
improve muscle memory, and to develop fast and agile reflexes.
John Mosley started on a deck in California, Look where it took him.
Bob Howard, a World Champion acro-freestyle skier, also maximizes training on a deck.
Why learn or practice on a Deck?
1.) Time efficiency: Learn on a deck then enjoy your time
on
the Mountain No lift lines or waiting.
2.) Comfort: The weather is always consistent indoors, no
wind holds.
3.) Feedback: Watch every turn improve in the mirror,
video replay or
audible suggestions as you ski or snowboard.
4.) Instruction: Learn from a experienced professional
instructor.
5.) Enjoyment: skiing or boarding 4 seasons of the year.
6.) Safety: A safety harness option, allows you to learn without
falling.
7.) Mileage / verticle: Ski / snowboard a mile every 10-15
mins.
10,000+ vertical feet hr.
Ski decks are an EXCELLENT all seasons tool. You will learn ( quickly ), practice ( efficiently ) and have endless fun. You will build endurance concurrently while mastering precise technique or you will "Kiss the Deck"
