Using imoove to prepare for skiing

Using imoove to prepare for downhill skiing

« Fluidity, glide and balance in movement. »

Every year, more than 8 million downhill skiing fans wait impatiently for the first snow and the school holidays to indulge in their favourite sport: skiing. But beware, this sport is not without its risks… Nearly 200,000 people are injured every year. Preparing for skiing is therefore an essential step at the start of each season.

imoove is one of the partners of the French Ski Federation’s Medical Commission, and it reintroduces skiers to the key points of the discipline: it’s finally possible to prepare for skiing in 5 days and avoid being one of the 15% of skiers injured each year!

Frequent pathologies

Often caused by speed or fatigue, injuries can affect both the upper and lower limbs:

Anterior cruciate ligament sprainShoulder injuryAcromioclavicular dislocationFracture of the clavicleScaphoid fracture

The benefits

imoove®, thanks to its elispheric® movement, restores the skier’s balance. It allows the upper and lower parts of the body to work separately.

Le travail musculo-postural réalisé sur imoove® permet d’expliquer la qualité du skieur qui chute rarement et passe partout.

The random programme of imoove®, combining inclination, high speed and variable direction of the board, gives the skier the ability to anticipate and adapt optimally to the unevenness of the piste.

imoove®provides real preparation for skiing with fluid edge changes, improves synchronisation of the inherent pelvic and scapular girdles, improves fundamental propulsion coordination and helps maintain the centre of gravity.

The word of the physical trainer

Support transfers, lowering the centre of gravity to improve stabilisation, random changes in direction of rotation to get used to absorbing imbalances thanks to the induced work of dynamic sheathing…. All this is possible thanks to imoove! It’s a revolutionary machine.

The therapist's opinion

imoove re-establishes the skier’s balance of support and allows the upper and lower parts of the body to work separately. And improves synchronisation of the pelvic and scapular girdles.

In order to improve the synchronisation of the skier’s pelvic and scapular girdles, imoove rehabilitates the fundamental coordination of the body’s propulsion and enables the centre of gravity to be maintained.

Large dynamic global stretches free up areas of musculo-aponeurotic retraction. This gives the skier total availability to coordinate the inclination and rotation of the trunk in relation to the action of the legs.

Thanks to its elispheric movement, imoove re-establishes the skier’s balance of support and enables the upper and lower parts of the body to be worked on separately, so as to be better prepared for downhill skiing.
