Research, laboratory and field tests(anaerobic, aerobic, and lactate )have been performed by Michel Portmann, Ph.D. Neurophysiology and Level V Olympic Trainer of the University of Quebec in Montréal, by Jean P. Boucher, Ph.D. Kinanthropology and with help from LANGE international ski boot company. A survey was made on the BENIX products featuring the KIRAX neuro-facilitator by Franco Milani, in Italy.

Slalom Ski Slope and Giant Slalom speed Tests An infrared telemetry and electronic apparatus was used to measure the speed results. Captors were placed at the beginning and the end of the slope. Athletes were wearing ski boots with or without the KIRAX neuro-facilitator.

Test results : The slalom and giant ski slope results show a significant speed increase when wearing ski boots with the KIRAX neuro-facilitator.
