CXC Super Fit is back in Twin Cities and coming to Joe's Ski Shop

CXC Super Fit is back in Twin Cities and coming to Joe's Ski Shop this coming weekend with CXC Team athletes and coaches! Nov 14, 15 and 16. 

Bring your old skis to test if they have a good fit for you, learn what conditions they will ski the best and compare them to new skis side by side. CXC Team athletes and coaches will also assist in finding your best pair of skis from the store stock.

Each Superfit Weekend is also about getting advice on technique, training and waxing. CXC athletes and coaches will be on hand to complement the store's staff and assist you with boots selection and fitting, poles selection and length, ski apparel and wax box insights.

WHAT IS CXC 3D PRESSURE MAT?

CXC's 3D pressure mat is the most comprehensive ski analysis device available to consumers. Simple in use and easy to understand it provides dynamic 3D live imaging of how your skiing forces are distributed through a ski's running surface as you move.

See your skis' reaction in 3 dimensions on a flat screen display. We can guarantee you will leave your SuperFit fitting not only with superbly preforming skis, but also with an in-depth understanding on how skis turn your kick and gliding motions into forward speed.

NEW THIS YEAR: POWER POLES AND NEW DOUBLE POLE ERG

Come and see the exciting new tools that CXC has developed to further sport science in nordic skiing.  The power pole is a wireless device developed to monitor force output from each poling motion. By collecting this data, athletes and coaches are provided with feedback allowing them to adjust cadence or the amount of force being applied on each pole.

CXC has also developed a new double pole erg system.  The new system employs a rail system that very accurately simulates double poling on snow and utilizes actual poles. Instead of pulling on a rope, the user pushes on poles which track both horizontally and vertically.  Help us test it out!
