What’s Included

Sci-tech insights.

We will sum up for you the most important and relevant updates from the fields of science and technology with direct applicability in our sport.

We keep it simple and relevant. But also practical.

New research..

Do you know there are many relevant studies in our field of interest? Although some of them are quite complementary in regards to our sport and of course complicated to some degree, we will try to get the essential information out for you to digest more easily.

We also apply it in our practice provided it is convincing enough and/or it can be tested by us beforehand.

Stories & more…

We are all in search for motivation and always fond of a good old adventure story. Well, it won’t always be about old stories but it will most certainly be about adventures regardless of being our own or an experience delivered to us in kind words by our invited guests.

What is SMART U.

It’s the place where we gather to learn, connect and experience more of our sport.

It is also where we find new interesting stories and from where we can derive that inner motivation as well as that small competitive advantage.

While it is a place for knowledge, we’ll keep it fun too.
