3S Training - Driven by data
Tried, Tested, and Proven!
We're big on data and results and we sure as heck weren’t going to create a product without proof that it is safe and effective!
So, we partnered with the world-renowned Human Performance Lab / Sports Insight at the University of Calgary to have our gear tested by real athletes.
Movements: forward skating, backward skating, forward crossovers, and backward crossovers
Skating Conditions: No added system, Roket Gear with 2, 3, 4, 5 lbs weight increments.

Skating Speeds
The athletes were able to maintain their skating speeds with Roket Gear and the added mass.
Movement Patterns
Absolute movement patterns remained relatively unchanged with Roket Gear on the skater's legs.
Knee & Hip Angles
What Does That Mean For Your Training?
No Interference
Roket Gear is sport-specific, so hockey players can “train true to their sport”, meaning they can perform skills with added weight without the weight altering their normal skating mechanics. Gone are the days of using equipment that is cumbersome like parachutes or rubber bands or lever heavy products like skate weights or ankle weights. Our gear ensures that weighted training doesn’t interfere with normal skating mechanics.Customize To Your Goals
Our customized 4” long ¼ lbs stainless steel cylindrical weights can be easily added and removed from our revolutionary water-proof nylon and neoprene fitted shells depending on how you’re training that day.Conquer Plateaus
Roket Gear makes sport-specific workouts more challenging through added weight. You can practice skills while building strength, ultimately conquering training plateaus.The Human Performance Lab /Sports Insight
