Foam pit/resi ramp off season training?

[eheeth]

Anyone ever spent a large amount of time with foam pits and resi ramps to learn new tricks in the off season? Had a bit of an ordinary season in nz with a torn mcl and didn't progress nearly as much as I wanted, but thought getting a pair of inlines and getting on the grind would set me up pretty well for next year. thoughts?

Well worth the investment. Blading is super fun. Similar enough, but also different enough from skiing. If there was a resi or a foam pit near me, I'd definitely hit them at least once a week. And my air trick vocabulary would be on a whole another level for sure. The closest place is 150km away so I visit them like once a year. I roll 3-5 times a week in the summer months. Hit me a follow on Instagram, plenty of blade content (and skiing as well of course https://www.instagram.com/tominiemenmaa/

Awesome to see other skiers that blade. My go to off season sport is blading. Works the same muscles as skiing and tricks are very similar. If you have access to a foam pit I would highly recommend it. You can watch videos of harlaut doing craziness into a foam pit on blades
