Making changes to any movement pattern takes time and repetition. If you are unsure of the value that WinnPro treadmill training can provide, start by purchasing a single session to view the experience.
We recommend starting with a 6 pack of sessions to give the athlete a chance to learn about the fundamentals of efficient and powerful skating and to identify their largest areas for improvement.
Every athlete is different and will retain and apply learned concepts at different speeds. It is always our goal to influence the greatest amount of positive change in the shortest time frame possible.
Sessions are 30 minutes in length allowing for shift lengths of approximately 30-40 seconds on and 30-40 seconds of rest. Sessions are scheduled in a 2:1 skater to instructor ratio.
Skates, gym clothing and a water bottle are all the items that are necessary for a session. Be advised we do not have a change or washroom available for public use. Skaters are required to arrive ready to go in appropriate clothing.

Yes! It is strongly recommended that players skate in their actual game skates to develop proper feel. The treadmill will not damage player skates.
Depending on the frequency of use, the Treadmill will dull the skate blades 1.5 to 2 times faster than on the ice. It is recommended that players sharpen their skates after use if going back to an on-ice game.
Skating on the treadmill will feel awkward at first until the skater gets a feel for working against resistance. Once the skater understands how hard or fast they need to push to match the resistance of the machine, skating starts to feel more normal. The transition from treadmill back to the ice is always a great feeling because the resistance factor is removed and improvements to balance and technique make skating on ice far easier.
All skaters wear a safety harness that will prevent them from touching the skating surface if they fall. The harness system also includes an automatic, pressure sensed shutoff that will stop the treadmill from moving as quickly as possible when triggered.
Yes - the current weight limit for skating on the treadmill is 210 pounds. We recommend booking a private on ice session for mechanical training beyond the weight limit. contact@winnprohockey.com for private session information.
