Testimonials
  "The Crossover Flywheel has created an excellent opportunity to not only focus on balance, edge control and crossovers, but also the crucial aspect of transitioning from front to back or back to front. In it's isolated environment you are able to push muscle groups that directly support the form of these edge specific skills, therefore enabling you to build the optimal crossover or transition."

Eric Scott
Professional Skating Instructor and Athletic Trainer



"I have tried the Flywheel and I think it is one of the most amazing training tools to come along in ice hockey for the crossover. The sustained leg burn and pump I got from just 5 skates was incredible. This machine can isolate the technique and give you a workout!"

Flywheel Testing
  We are in an ongoing process of having the Crossover Flywheel studied in collaboration with The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Our first pilot study was targeted at determining whether or not training on the Crossover Flywheel is safe. We found strong evidence that it is. It also showed evidence for a training effect of increased lateral acceleration production as well as leg power and proprioception that supports ice skating of all forms. Future studies are intended to expand on and solidify this encouraging evidence. Please call 763-315-9393 for more information about these studies.
