Is VALD a ProSportTec product?

VALD ForceDecks is third-party force-plate technology. ProSportTec supplies and integrates it into the ProSportTec and beeSPORT diagnostics workflow, so its data sits alongside your skating and training results.

How long does a test take?

A countermovement jump takes only seconds per athlete, so a full squad can be tested quickly within a normal session.

Professional clubs, academies, federations and performance clinics — anyone who needs objective force data to guide training and reduce injury risk.

Does it work with the rest of the ProSportTec system?

Yes. VALD results feed the same athlete profiles as Skatemill sessions and beeSPORT tests, so training and testing stay in one loop.

VALD ForceDecks are lab-grade dual force plates, built into the ProSportTec method. Jump height, explosive power and left–right asymmetry — measured in seconds, tracked across a whole season.

The problem

Hard training, guessed readiness

Without objective numbers, the eye test misses what matters. You can't see who is genuinely progressing, who is carrying fatigue, or which leg is quietly compensating — until it shows up as a plateau or an injury.

Invisible fatigue. Overload builds for weeks before it shows up in performance
Hidden asymmetry. A dominant leg masks a weaker one — and raises injury risk
No baseline. without a starting number, "better" is only an opinion

The system

Objective force data, in seconds

An athlete steps onto the dual plates and performs a jump. ForceDecks captures how force is produced — and VALD's software turns it into clear, comparable numbers.

Explosive output

Jump height, peak power and takeoff velocity quantify true explosiveness.

Left–right symmetry

See exactly how much each leg contributes — and flag risk early.

Season-long tracking

Every test is benchmarked and stored, so progress is a trend, not a guess.

How it works

Test. Benchmark. Track.

VALD fits the ProSportTec loop — every test produces data, and every data point shapes the next block of training.

Test

The athlete performs a countermovement jump on the dual force plates — a few seconds each.

Benchmark

VALD software compares every result against age and level norms, instantly.

Track

Results are stored per athlete, so coaches see real trends and target the next gain.

What a test shows

One jump, a full force profile

A single countermovement jump reports the metrics that matter — shown here as an illustrative profile against a benchmark.

Illustrative

Jump height92%

Peak power88%

Takeoff velocity95%

L/R symmetry84%

Illustrative example only — your athletes' figures come from their own tests on the plates.

Why it matters

Objective data vs the eye test

Both develop players. Only one shows you whether it is working.

	ProSportTec + VALD	Eye-test only
Readiness	Measured before fatigue costs a result	Noticed once form already drops
Asymmetry	Quantified leg by leg	Invisible until injury
Progress	A benchmarked trend line	An opinion between coaches
Decisions	Backed by each athlete's numbers	Based on the last session seen
