Our PowerSk8r Founder was thrilled to be part of Florida’s 1st Annual Mid-Florida Meltdown Hockey Tournament a couple of weeks ago. While we’ve gotten hundreds of endorsements for our skate-weight training tools at this event and through the years, we couldn’t be happier to get raving support from one of the referees at this youth event.Shawn Chase has spent most of his life on the ice, first playing on ice hockey teams and eventually refereeing. He knows what it takes to build skills. He strapped PowerSk8r weights onto his skates, refereed an entire game, and came off the ice with rave reviews! When he started talking about the benefits of PowerSk8r to anyone and everyone he could at the tournament, people listened. The first words out of his mouth were, “It’s a great invention! If you’re trying to get fast, especially kids, you need ‘em NOW.” See our interview with him here: https://youtu.be/eNJEx39-LUY?t=152Chase said he felt the burn in his quad muscles after just four strides and that the benefits of training with them consistently could only bring one outcome, massively improved skills. His experience reflects exactly why the Carolina Thunderbirds, 2019 Commissioner’s Cup Champions, added them to their training regimen last year, why over 30 state championships have been won by teams that have made our skate weights part of their training routines...and why PowerSk8r has become on Amazon Bestseller!Typical skate weights attach under the skate. PowerSk8r skate weights attach to the top of skates, which brings more benefits. First, it builds more leg strength. Chase said, “I’ve used the other ones and had minimal results. With these my legs were burning after the first four strides! You train with these for a whole season, and there’s no stopping you!” Second, “No more slap shots to the laces! These weights block ‘em, which also helps your speed and performance.” Referee Chase says he is already spreading the word to skaters, parents, coaches, and fellow referees. “I’m blessed I was introduced to PowerSk8r and want as many other people as possible to experience these powerful results!” We’re excited to be aligned with him and look forward to hearing more success stories from skaters at every level.Learn more here and see how these powerful tools can help you or a skater you know: https://powersk8r.com/
