I took one with me going to the french alps. 1 or 2 indoor sessions everyday should see me coming back to byron a bit more paddling fit that what I am used to every year
kelly might be one of the best...but that thing is crap. buy a big stick and a sk8r and get fit if you cant sup,heaps more fun and some of you might learn how to turn your boards or just go on a diff net site and work both arms instead of one arm
Pretty hard to doubt Mick Dibetta's credentials when it comes to training.
I spoke to him about this and I know he is trying to price it a point where it's far cheaper than a paddle and accessible to everyone.
I tried it in the carpark for 30 seconds and it's unreal how you can feel and isolate the muscles you should be using to adapt your technique and to train them to be a stronger paddler.
a good training item and not to expensive at $29.99 [in your dreams at that price ; wait a couple of months and it will more than likley be close to that price]
Word is the website will be live soon and apart from being able to buy direct it will also have plenty of training drills and technique tips to get the most out of your training on and off the water.
This sort of thing is easy enough to rig up yourself with some powerbands, providing you have the space to place attachment points, though my setup isn't quite as schmick, without a proper paddle grip etc. Have been doing this for a couple of months and it certainly has it's place as part of a wider training regime. Was thinking recently how long it would be before this sort of thing would be on the market-looks good. I reckon it won't be long before there will be all sort of resistance training apparatus with SUP in mind.
was looking at an american SUP site the other night and they have a full on rowing machine for SUP. I actually like this one better cause its small. I also do some land SUP and that is also a good training option IMO. Once again anything that gets us moving is a good thing.
