Declan skated on this Hockey Treadmill the months of August and September with 4 of his hockey buddies. It is a lot of work for him, but he loves it. It teaches him how to skate properly and to move his body to not waste energy. After he was done and got on the ice in October, we could see a huge difference in his skating. He is excited to be skating so much better and FASTER!
The harness you see him wearing is for protection. If he looses his footing, he is taught to fall like superman with his arms out to his sides. The harness will keep him off the moving part until they can stut it off.
They watch themselves in the mirror in front of them as they skate. This treadmill also raises up so they are technically skating uphill. They work hard!
