01. IMPROVES YOUR ENDURANCE AND PERFORMANCE
Multiply your skiing time by 4!
Even when in great physical shape and properly trained, the pleasure of skiing is insatiable and increases with intensity. If the slopes have significant elevation changes, the quadriceps will eventually start to burn, and a break will be necessary to let the lactic acid level drop. Taking a break when you want to is always positive, but a break forced by fatigue interrupts your rhythm.
By supporting about 1/3 of the body’s weight, the Ski~Mojo allows the quadriceps to work less in terms of strength and more in terms of endurance.
The Ski~Mojo reduces the strain on the quadriceps, allowing the muscle to work with less effort while maintaining its strength. This saves 30 to 40% of energy, which is redistributed over the course of the effort. The result: more lightness, more turns, more intensity, and less fatigue, all while preserving the sporting nature of skiing (the Ski~Mojo does not eliminate muscle work but redistributes it differently).
You will experience various benefits:
02. REDUCES KNEE, HIP, AND BACK PAIN
Two powerful springs activated whenever you want!
The Ski~Mojo uses two adjustable powerful springs to support about a third of the body’s weight, transferring this load from the hips to the boots. This significantly reduces vertical pressure on the knees, thus relieving pain and potentially even eliminating it for some users.
Moreover, unlike a traditional brace, which is limited to lateral knee support, the Ski~Mojo absorbs shocks and vibrations from the terrain, allowing you to ski more comfortably while also reducing stress on all joints (knees, hips, and back).
More than 26,000 skiers have adopted the Ski~Mojo and recommend it to their friends. If you’re wondering whether it will be effective for you, we know the answer will be YES in more than 95% of cases, but if you’re skeptical, give it a try!
Please note that, like many other pieces of equipment designed to make sports easier, longer-lasting, or safer (such as an electric-assist bicycle), the Ski~Mojo is not a medical device.

03. PRESERVES YOUR KNEES
Rebalance muscle work to reduce the risk of injury:
By analyzing balance control on a force platform, the study by Moret and De Gunsch finds that in a static speed-seeking position, the distance traveled by the center of pressure is shorter when using the Ski~Mojo.
This would suggest that the equipment also has a positive influence on the skier’s balance control.
Case study:
Muscle workload intensity & Knee protection
Since 2008, two studies have been conducted on the impact of the Ski~Mojo on muscle activity.
Electromyography revealed that with the Ski~Mojo:
- The quadriceps work on average at 70% of their reference activity.
- The hamstrings work on average at 110% of their reference activity.
The energy savings felt in the work of the quadriceps is therefore real and quantified. Several studies have also established the importance of the hamstrings/quadriceps (H/Q) ratio in protecting the anterior cruciate ligaments. By analyzing the results of the EMG (electromyography), it is noted in the laboratory that the use of the Ski~Mojo significantly improves this ratio (by 27%), and this trend is confirmed during Ski~Mojo trials on the slopes (studies conducted by the scientific department of the French Ski Federation). This would tend to reduce knee laxity and thus protect the ACLs.
Considering that fatigue is a factor that increases the risk of ACL injuries, and that the Ski~Mojo also reduces fatigue, it is highly likely that the risk of injury decreases proportionally.
04. INCREASE SAFETY
By delaying muscle fatigue, the Ski~Mojo reduces the likelihood of injury
Fatigue is probably one of the main causes of skiing accidents. It can be avoided through proper physical preparation, but few skiers follow such a regimen. The Ski~Mojo helps delay the onset of this fatigue by reducing the perceived weight on the legs by about one-third, while balancing the work between the hamstrings and quadriceps muscles.
This allows skiers to better control their trajectories and maintain the muscle freshness needed to react effectively in case of emergencies. With less lactic acid buildup, muscles respond faster and more vigorously. Finally, the Ski~Mojo improves edge grip by “loading” and bending the ski more efficiently, especially on hard snow. This enables more precise handling.
At the end of the day, users report fewer muscle aches, thus contributing to an overall better experience on the slopes while reducing the risk of fatigue-related injuries.

You have to see it to believe it!
Ski~Mojo delays fatigue to such an extent that it enables young athletes to ski very long distances without difficulty. Here, 8min30 of non-stop carving in Saas Fee (1700m vertical drop without any break)

Don’t get us wrong,
with the Ski~Mojo, skiing remains a sport, but it becomes more of an endurance activity. It allows you to ski longer without exhausting your muscles because it promotes the repetition of the flexion-extension movement. Therefore, it does not weaken the quadriceps muscle mass.
However,
a scientific study shows that the Ski~Mojo increases the workload on the hamstrings by 10% while reducing the effort of the quadriceps by 35 to 40%. This improves muscle balance, providing better protection for the anterior cruciate ligaments.
Therefore,
if you want to fully enjoy your skiing days, improve your performance, race down the slopes, or simply keep up with your more athletic children, the Ski~Mojo is the ideal solution. It will allow you to ski longer, with more ease and less pain. Don’t hesitate to try it and form your own opinion.
the Ski~Mojo Technology
The Ski~Mojo is a device based on a technology that uses the power of a spring. The kinetic energy stored during knee flexion is released during extension through the decompression of the spring.
With the recommended adjustment in the user manual, the Ski~Mojo will support 1/3 of your body weight, which your legs will no longer have to bear. However, it’s easy to adjust the assistance according to your specific needs.
The articulated system is connected to the ski or snowboard boot shell (temporary connection during a trial) and to a comfortable under-seat harness.
The structure is inserted into a neoprene sleeve that keeps it in place. Since its primary purpose is not to provide lateral knee support, the neoprene should not be too tight. It adapts to each person’s morphology (hip circumference, tibial and femoral length). The whole system is therefore comfortable and quickly becomes unnoticeable.
The advantages of the Ski~Mojo
The Ski~Mojo relieves the knees, thighs, hips, and back, allowing its user to ski much longer with more comfort and enjoyment.
it is easily transportable.
Why does Chemmy Alcott, Britain’s most successful female ski racer, use the Ski~Mojo?
Following a glittering career that included four Winter Olympic Games, seven World Championships, Alcott continues to work as a race coach with CDC Performance, a company she set up with her husband and former British Team Ski Racer, Dougie Crawford.
After a serious knee injury in March 2016, and subsequent operation and rehabilitation, Alcott used the Ski Mojo for the first time and not only found it valuable as a knee support, but also for improving performance over long periods of time on the mountain.
A WORD FROM THE INVENTOR OF SKI~MOJO
“The Ski~Mojo is to skiing what the turbo is to a car or what the electric motor is to a bike”
