Half Human Air Ski with base plate

The Half Human Air Ski ergometer, with its dynamic air resistance, is a piece of exercise equipment that not only improves endurance and strength but also offers a versatile and motivating workout experience. Whether for intense HIIT training or a balanced cardio workout – the Half Human Air Ski is ideal for an efficient and holistic workout.

How does air resistance training work?
Theair resistanceis generated by a fan integrated into the Air Ski’s drive unit. Pulling on the handles sets the fan in motion, creating air resistance. The faster and more intensely you pull, the more air is moved and the greater the resistance. This method allows for stepless control of the training intensity – without any manual adjustments. In addition, the Half Human Air Ski offers the option to adjust the base resistance across 10 levels to suit your individual fitness level.

What are the benefits of training with air resistance?
Unlike conventional, fixed resistance settings, which often force jerky and unnatural movements, air resistance automatically adapts to the user’s pace and strength. This results in a particularly effective workout that is also gentle on the joints. It enables both explosive sprint and interval sessions as well as long-duration endurance exercises with constant resistance. Furthermore, with its 10 adjustable resistance levels, the Air Ski ergometer offers personalised customisation that is suitable for both beginners and ambitious athletes, allowing you to tailor your workout precisely to your own needs and goals.

Dynamic adjustment
The Air Ski’s air resistance automatically adapts to the intensity of your movements, making it easy to vary your training intensity – without any manual adjustments. By adjusting the frequency and force of your skiing movements, you can effortlessly make your workout more intense or less strenuous.

Smooth Movement
The Air Ski’s air resistance provides consistent, smooth resistance throughout the entire movement. This realistically and comfortably simulates the sensation of cross-country skiing, resulting in a more natural and effective workout.

Immediate feedback
The Air Ski provides immediate feedback with every pull. The machine reacts directly to the intensity and speed of your movements, allowing you to feel and adjust your performance in real time.

Suitable for all fitness levels
The Air Ski is suitable for everyone, regardless of fitness level. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced cross-country skier – the variable air resistance offers the right challenge for every ability level and supports continuous progress.

Features:

• Air resistance system
• Resistance levels 1–10
• Dynamic resistance – the training resistance is regulated by the pulling force – the more force applied, the greater the resistance
• Drive system: Cable drive system
• Set-up: freestanding via floor mount or wall mounting (wooden or concrete walls – not plasterboard walls) using the wall mount kit (plugs and screws not included) 
• Floor Mount/Base Plate: this floor stand provides additional stability and safety during training. It ensures that the machine remains firmly and immovably in place, even during intensive workouts. The solid construction of the floor mount eliminates any wobbling or slipping, which not only increases safety but also enables a more effective and focused workout
• Dimensions of the base plate: L120 x W58 cm
• Training computer: LCD display, 5-inch (12.7 cm), adjustable tilt
• Training displays: 
• Training displays at a glance: Time: duration of the workout; 500m AVG: average time per 500 metres; Distance: the distance covered in metres; Distance 30min.:Distance 30 min.: indicates the estimated distance to be covered in the next 30 minutes, Metres per stroke: distance covered with each stroke, Watts: Displays the power output in watts, Watts AVG: displays the average power output in watts for the workout, Calories: displays the (calculated) approximate number of calories burnt, Calories per Hour: Displays the (calculated) approximate number of calories burnt per hour, Strokes per Minute: Displays the number of strokes per minute; Pulse: Displays the heart rate from 40 to 220 beats per minute during the workout. To use this function, a Bluetooth heart rate chest strap (optional accessory) must be worn; Bluetooth: indicates whether the training computer is connected to an app, Cycle: displays the progress of a selected training programme, Low Battery: is only displayed when the battery is low
• 8 training programmes:Quick Start: the Quick Start programme is ideal for spontaneous workouts. Simply pull the handle to start, and all the readings on the console will begin to accumulate. You can use the “STOP” button to temporarily pause the counting of the readings or to clear all data. Distance Countdown: In the Distance Countdown programme, you set a target distance in advance, which can range from 100 to 9,999 metres. During your workout, the programme counts down the distance until the target is reached. Time Countdown: Here you can set a target time of between 1:00 and 99:00 minutes. The programme then counts down the time until your workout is complete. Calorie Countdown: In this mode, you set a calorie target ranging from 10 to 999 calories. The programme then counts down the calories burnt until your target is reached. Game programme: There are no pre-set values in the game programme. You start the programme and, at the end, receive a score that reflects your performance. 20/10 Interval: This programme consists of 20 seconds of exercise followed by a 10-second rest. You can set the number of rounds from 1 to 99. 10/20 Interval: Here, you exercise for 10 seconds and then rest for 20 seconds. Here, too, you can set the number of rounds from 1 to 99. 10/10 Custom Interval: In this programme, you can set the number of cycles, the training time and the rest time individually.
