A RIDE THAT BURNS (Calories)
Just like in snowboarding, the Summerboard engages your hamstrings, glutes and quads. A recent study with UCLA found that using a Summerboard results in a higher calorie burn than jogging, biking and yes even snowboarding.

“I use it to keep my snowboard muscles active. It's all I have now as the state I live in has no ski resorts of any use.”

“If you go hard at speed and are constantly in a squat its a burner for sure. Snowboarding you get a break on the chairlift but on this beast you just keep going.”

“Considering how much energy it takes to ride a summerboard, there is no being lazy on it ever.”

GET A HIGH CALORIE BURN
“Measurements of muscle activity patterns in Summerboard riders displayed similar patterns to that previously recorded in alpine snowboarders reflect the similarity lower-limb mechanics required in both activities.”
