Droog­training

Droogtraining (bootcamp) is the only training throughout the year. This is a skate specific training full of jumps, running, squats and exercises with elastic bands. With this you immediately work on your strength, technique and condition at the same time! Put on your running shoes and bring a water bottle and towel!
