Since launching Protern.io in December, we’ve watched the world’s best alpine ski teams use our product to improve athlete performance.
We’ve heard from customers that Protern.io changes how you coach and train.
With our lightweight sensor and easy-to-use software, Protern.io inspires innovation. This can mean new ways of thinking for skiers, coaches and athletic/high performance directors.
Below are five strategies that will help you get the most of your investment in Protern.io.
A skier can go up the T-bar or chairlift and, on a phone or tablet see exactly what happened where on the course. They can make changes for their next training run.
Protern.io makes it simple to understand how changes to their approach and position impact performance through the section, and the sections that follow.
Lines gives teams the ability to understand how different routes through a section affect speeds further down the course.
Using Protern.io, a coach and athlete can see how line choices you make impact your overall finish time.
You can compare line choices from other runs, whether from only that athlete or others to see where differences add up.
To be able to analyze, based on data collected over months of usage why a skier is or is not improving is vital to coaching and long-term athlete performance.
1. Compare each athlete to themselves
Protern.io makes it easy to see how an individual athlete’s changes help them to improve their skiing. While we still display how an athlete compares to other team-mates, you can also use Protern.io to understand how line choice or a different technique impacts their results. If you are using Protern.io “live” with our Android mobile app, these results are shown to you only seconds after a run is over.
