Ski PT is a pre-hab app with exercise routines aimed to build users bodies in Strength, Balance, Conditioning, and Flexibility for better skiing and injury prevention. Strength is required for having the control to cut and hold an edge on the snow and maintain control. Balance is needed for staying relaxed while bending ankles, knees, and hips in sometimes counter-intuitive positions for proper form. Conditioning helps prevent fatigue which leads to bad form, increasing the likelihood of injury. Flexibility assists with balance while conditioning tendons and ligaments to bend rather than break in the event of a wipeout or fall. Exercise routines were developed by a Colorado licensed physical therapist and ski instructor from Keystone resort, who was also a competitive college skier and has the unique knowledge and first hand experience of what's needed for proper ski technique and injury prevention. While Ski PT is NOT an injury recovery program (please see a physical therapist in person), it is designed from first hand experience both on the slopes and in a clinical setting to help prep the body for improved physical shape leading to better skiing and preventing injury in the first place. Ski PT is ideal for: Traveling skiers who only ski a few days a year. Mature skiers who want to keep enjoying it for years to come. Skiers who have already recovered from a previous injury and want to fortify themselves to prevent re-injury.
Beatwired

Beatwired is a rhythm-based regulation tool for ADHD brains. No drums required. A pillow and ten minutes will do. A session is simple. Check in with how you're feeling: overwhelmed, balanced, or under-stimulated. Get a drum pattern matched to it. Watch it played on video, then practice with a steady click and a rhythm grid, on whatever is in front of you. Thighs, a tabletop, a pillow. A practice pad if you have one. A drum kit if one lives in your house. Every session runs about ten minutes, with a good stopping point near the halfway mark, and you can stop whenever you’re done. Built for people who have quit a hundred apps. Missing a day costs nothing: your total minutes only count up, and coming back after a gap is met with "You're back. New streak starts now." No drumming experience needed. Nothing to perform. WHAT'S IN THE APP • A library of 18 patterns, filmed overhead: pad, kit, and hands • A steady click at tempos chosen for each pattern • A three-state check-in that shapes the session • A rhythm grid that shows each pattern as your two hands, no notation required • Progress that counts up: total minutes, patterns found, and a gentle day streak FREE AND PRO The free tier is a complete daily practice. Beatwired Pro adds the full pattern library, every pattern on pad, kit, and hands: $49.99 a year or $7.99 a month, after a 7-day free trial. No countdowns, no expiring offers. It costs the same tomorrow. WHAT BEATWIRED IS NOT Beatwired is not a medical treatment. It does not treat ADHD or any health condition, and it is not a substitute for medication, therapy, or care. The research on rhythm and ADHD is young; we grade it honestly, including what is not yet proven, at beatwired.com/science. Beatwired itself has not been studied. SAFETY Beatwired asks for your hands and your attention. Never use it while driving or operating machinery. Beatwired’s practice grid pulses gently in time with the click. If you’re sensitive to flashing or pulsing visuals, talk with your doctor before using it — and turn on your device’s Reduce Motion setting, which Beatwired honors. Beatwired comes from a father and son. The father, a lifelong drummer and a physician of nearly twenty years, started teaching his son the drums at age three. The son grew up with ADHD. Interests came and went. The drums stayed. Your brain was made for this.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ski at none against Beatwired's 2. Ski also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). Beatwired's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
