Well it's interesting. Presumably a push to go mainstream. One wonders if they are a sufficient threat yet for VR to buy them to take them off the table?

It's still a commitment $400 may be cheap compared to a US private lesson but still a think twice on "am I really going to use this in a disciplined way?"

I'd expect the real convincer is lots of on snow demos. But that takes a lot of marketing investment.

I’d be curious to try, but am not going to spend $$ and fiddle with installing devices in my boots to satisfy that curiosity. So an easy on-snow demo is about the only thing that might make me think about it.

I’d absolutely have to demo before I’d ever purchase.
