We bought this awhile ago and got very good results. The trainer has two balancing poles and the edge trainer itself.
Check out this great off-ice training product from David Lipetz, a respected physical therapist who works with figure skaters
PRICE : $175 plus shipping. Off ice edge trainer can be shipped anywhere in the USA. Thanks.
The inventor of the Off-Ice Edge Trainer is a physical therapist who put a lot of time and research into this product. He tested many skaters to find the exact angles for correct weight displacement for each edge, to mimic edges used on the ice, and it is not something that can easily copied. It is actually very pricey to produce as well, hence the high cost. I have used it with my skaters, and it is valuable component to an off-ice training routine, because it incorporates strengthening and balance together while on the blade, no in a sneaker. Because of the approximation of weight displacement on the blade, you can really work on a skater's alignment and biomechanics while on the OIE. You can pin point an exact point in a jump takeoff where a skater may be having a biomechanical alignment or strength issue.
