Quiklock Nordic Ski Boot

Quicklock is a solution designed to adapt the cross country skiing experience for people with a loss of strength and balance and allow them more confidence in skiing. Loss of strength and balance is a common occurrence as people age and can decline rapidly once they pass the age of 65. The research conducted for this project was focused on discerning what the greatest limitation was for older adults who cross country ski. By assessing what these issues were and how they related to declining physical abilities, an effective solution was created.
