Covid-19 was a wake-up call to the world and well-being sharply declined globally.
We are the first booking + rental marketplace for fitness and action sports enabling diverse and cross-over experiences whilst helping people restore their needs and businesses re-generate revenues. While doing so, we are paving the way to enhance access to an active lifestyle in a post-pandemic world.
We are an early-stage start-up in the early-revenue phase and have developed a p2p marketplace for booking and renting fitness and action sports equipment and experiences. We will soon launch an Airbnb-like booking system for private home gyms.
