Technique Variations
Once you are comfortable with the basic skiing technique, you
can add variations such as standing with one foot forward and
one foot back, then switching feet. You may also find yourself
coming up on your toes as you lift your arms, just as you do on
your skis.
The SkiErg can also be used without using legs to work just the
upperbodyandcore.Usedthisway,theSkiErgprovidesahigh
quality workout option for those recovering from leg or foot
injuries. This may be done from either a standing position, or
seated on a stool.
