The idea of Nordic Skicrosser was to develop a cross trainer that would mimic as much as possible the movement of classic cross-country skiing. The development started back in 2012 but took off further in 2017 when the company Motiofy AB was founded. SkiCrossern has since been optimized gradually based on feedback from gyms and elite skiers.
Prototyping
