    Interesting. Before seeing the video, I thought it would be alleviating pressure in the joints but here the joints are still taking in all the load of your body? It’s only helping you move forward.

    I’ve been hiking all my life, and I think the pressure on my joints are more of a concern than stamina. for me, at least.

    But for an excursion, this must be like using a cheat code.

      Gee, I wonder why hiking up a historic mountain staircase wouldn’t wind you or tax your muscles as much as regular people.

    You know that feeling of triumph you get when you do something physical and conquer it? Like climbing a new mountain or shooting some awesome rapids? I bet it feels like nothing when you climb using these. Sense of accomplishment? Pffft.
