A true test for everybody

Inspired by the Modern Pentathlon and biathlon, the sport of laser shooting and a cardio piece tests precision skills and cardiovascular fitness.

Halo Pursuits created the sport of Skishoot™ to showcase how laser pistol shooting can be paired with a cardio piece such as the ski Erg.

Deliberately designed to be versatile, Skishoot™ programming provides a test for all fitness levels, requiring top tactics and strategic management of physical reserves.

This blend; test of precision skills and cardiovascular fitness can be integrated in many ways (using weights and/or doing body weight movements).  This would be better suited to studio fitness sessions that have varied high intensity programmes.

These can be run as individual sessions, build into existing programming or incorporated into larger scale fitness events.

How does SkiShoot work? 

A Skishoot™ event by definition involves skiing (using a Concept2 Ski Erg) and laser pistol shooting. Athletes are challenged to achieve a set shooting goal - generally hit a designated target (signified by a green light on the target) and ski within a specific time or distance domain.

As rounds progress, an athlete’s ability to successfully hit the target with the allotted time, is made increasingly difficult by maintaining the cardiovascular element of the event.

Athletes are faced with a choice. Ski hard risking shooting ability or hold back on the ski to improve their potential accuracy.
