Congratulations Ted on killing it in Soelden! 2nd place to get the season kick started… tiiiiight! The Shredder community is stoked for you.

And looks like the US papers are starting to get in to the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Game spirit, covering Solden as a preview for February. Shows just how big the games are.

Skier's Edge Simulator

So Ted [Ligety] calls me up the other week besides himself: “duuuude, I just got hooked up with the Skier’s Edge and it freakin’ rocks!”

Me: “What’s Skier’s Edge?”

Put simply, the Skier’s Edge offers a series of machines to match your skiing goals. They are the most complete ski performance technical conditioning systems available today. You basically choose the type of skiing you like or want to master, use the machine to simulate and train the movement associated with that skiing type!

Tight turns, deep powder, steep bumps or cruising runs, the Skier’s Edge System 4 machines have it all and will deliver results quickly. Plus, once the ski season is over, they’re the best cross-training machines available.

Along with the proper safety equipment -  from ski goggles to helmets to back protectors – good body conditioning and muscle memory prep is almost essential to a long, stoked and healthy season on the slopes. When the alternative is higher risk of injury, bad stamina, and general weakness slowing you down on the mountain, the Skier’s Edge looks like a heck of a machine and a small price to pay.

Ted implored me to let all our shredders know about this killer machine. He also mentioned that they offer a FREE demo DVD, brochure and price list. Just click here and get your starter kit.

Not only that, but they also offer a 4 year warranty and a 30 day money-back guarantee. That’s pretty sweet.
