Following a glittering career that included four Winter Olympic Games, seven World Championships and five Overall Senior National Champion titles as well as numerous others across five disciplines, Alcott continues to work in the winter sports industry 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 useful as a knee support, but also found it helped her improve performance over long periods of time on the mountain, she said:

Over years of competing at the highest level, multiple leg injuries and surgeries has often prevented me from returning to the sport I love at the same level as before. Now the Ski Mojo takes the pressure off my limbs and facilitates great technique, so I can conserve my energy whilst skiing harder for longer to get more out of my days on the mountain.

Co-Founder and owner of Ski Mojo, Martin Hannaford said:

We are delighted that Chemmy has decided to work with us at Ski Mojo as an ambassador and even happier that it’s helping ensure her career as a coach benefits as a result. We’ve always said that the Ski Mojo not only helps skiers with injury, but can also enhance their performance too and for a skier of Chemmy’s ability, talent and experience to recognise that is the best endorsement we can get. Not all skiers have Chemmy’s ability but it doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner, intermediate or instructor level, Ski Mojo works for everyone in exactly the same way.

Many other recreational skiers have also found the benefits of Ski Mojo that makes it possible for them to stay on the slopes longer, minimising the pain they might normally be experiencing. The updated design and functionality of the Ski Mojo means that constant improvements make it easier to wear.

With the second year at its new venue, the show is an exciting mix of live events such as the big air ramp, comedy tent and a new ice rink, alongside tour operators, chalet companies, retailers and equipment brands.

Ski Mojo will be there to tell its existing customers about the new developments and anyone new to the product, why it could help them to extend their ski life by many years.

The latest person to try out the ski-mojo on the Tignes glacier this weekend was Armel Grimault and he said on Facebook:

“Finally I had the opportunity to test the Ski Mojo and there is no going back to skiing without the Mojo! The comfort, the extra power, the feeling of security or in one word the pleasure the system provides is mind blowing. Love the stuff!!! #skiing #ski #skimojo #greatidea #amazingfeeling #harder #faster #safer #bionic #foreveryoung #tignes #frenchalps #wintersport”

As more instructors have seen the benefits of using a Ski Mojo during their season, both organisations understood the benefits of making them officially available to their members.

Members of both organisations will get a 30% discount on the recommended retail price when purchased directly from skimojo.com.

Martin Hannaford from Ski Mojo said:

“The PSIA is a highly respected organisation recognised in the industry worldwide and to have their endorsement is testament to how Ski Mojo has helped so many skiers remain in the sport. Our partnership with BASI is equally as important and their 6,000 members can now benefit from our special terms.

Many instructors are already using Ski Mojo to assist their day on the mountain and understand the potential benefits for some of their clients too, ultimately benefiting everyone in the industry by keeping people skiing for longer.”

About Ski Mojo

Specially developed using medical insights in Great Britain, Ski Mojo is a device that uses spring recoil technology to take up to a third of the strain off the legs and knees by providing kinetic energy to assist leg extension.

Ski Mojo supplements the power of the leg muscles, this in turn reduces impact, substantially delays muscle fatigue and alleviates leg and knee pain.

The Ski Mojo works like an exoskeleton for the legs consisting of a lightweight comfortable harness with neoprene knee supports containing powerful springs. Worn under ski pants the Ski Mojo is totally discreet so no-one would know it is being worn.
