Blade
The BLADE hockey skating treadmill is ideal for all levels of skaters. From beginners learning fundamentals to professional athletes seeking stride efficiency and endurance development, the BLADE is the ultimate tool for developing technique and improving overall skating abilities.
“Training on the Blade allows the athlete to have immediate feedback from a trainer while they see themselves skating in a mirror. The athlete is not able to glide while performing stick-handling drills which promotes improved skating with the puck. We have trained athletes from all levels including those learning to skate all the way up to NHL players. Our feedback has been extremely positive on all levels.”
-Steve Olson, ATC, CSCS

“The technology behind the Blade is a perfect marriage of how we approach athletic enhancement. With a product like this in our facility, we’re dramatically improving the athletes that come to us, especially hockey players in our area.”
-Jeff Kennedy, ACSM CES
