Anybody ever use a Skier's Edge exerciser?

[JollyJake99]

The title says it all. Seriously, has anybody ever used one? Did it improve your skiing? Was it worth the money?

I have a friend who bought one about 10-15 years ago. I tried it out several times and it did give me an aerobic workout. Did it help skiing technique? I don't know, experience is a better teacher... The foot pads were set up very close together, today's technique is to have your feet further apart than the settings on his SE. Maybe the new models have different spacing. He'd probably sell his. If you are interested, I'll let him know.

I looked at them a few years ago, but it doesn't have enough surface area to throw my clothes on or some other useful purpose for the price.

Just a guess here but the Wii Ski is cheaper and probably about as useful in my case as that just sits around in the box rather than in my basement.

 

Seriously though, I bet one of those things would be fun to use while watching ski movies in the summer months if for nothing else....lol
