Specially designed resistance cords are offered in 4 different weight ranges: Standard, Medium, Intermediate, and Heavy Duty. Different ages require different strength cords. Selecting the appropriate strength of cord relates to your strength level and the purpose of your training, be it skating technique, or strength & conditioning, and power.

Variable resistance comes through the concentric loading of the elastic cord - the greater the stretch, the greater the resistance. The elastic properties of the cord are transferred directly into the muscles that are opposing it. Rhino Cords produce force as they are stretched providing the muscles with progressive resistance, thus increasing your strength, muscular endurance, increase your muscle size and tone your appearance.

Medium Duty Cord
The medium cord is for skilled players from ages 13 to recreational adult, who want more emphasis on conditioning as well as training technique. Also used with the crossunder attachment. (Optional)

Intermediate Duty Cord
For the more advanced, and higher skilled player from 17 and up, who plays at the AAA Midget Major, Junior, College and well conditioned adult player levels. Emphasis on strength and conditioning as well as training technique. (Optional)

Heavy Duty Cord
This cord is for the Highly Skilled player at the Junior A, College and Professional ranks. (Optional)

(Warning: DO NOT use this cord unless you are in top physical condition at the Advanced Skill Level)

The coaxial construction provides for a protective sheath encapsulating a network of rubber bands throughout the length of the cord. Eye Bolts are provided to be positioned across the back of the PowerSkater on the cross brace. Each hole placement provides a range of weight resistance. As you increase the setting, you simultaneously increase the resistance. As the younger skater grows and strengthens he can graduate across the settings and to the next cord level.
