RS Aero Hiking Bench
Here is Paul Gingras of the RS Aero fleet at Sailfish Club of Florida making good use of the RS Aero Hikingbench installed in their club gym.
Paul sets the hiking bench up next to a cable machine to combine his hiking with simulating playing a mainsheet too! After installation and some testing, Paul complemented David Page of Hikingbench;
"Our new hiking bench is now installed and in use in our fitness room at the Sailfish Club of Florida. You have designed and built a very high quality piece of equipment which should help our sailors improve their hiking ability. I have followed your advice and warned everyone to take it easy at first, don’t overdue it!
Thanks for developing an excellent product."
Thanks for developing an excellent product."
