I used to work at AlterG years ago. The guys who started Boost were the founders of AlterG. They must have gotten sick of the jokers who were brought in to run AlterG. The guy who is the CEO of AlterG is one of the least honest, dumbest people I’ve ever worked with. It’s not surprising they haven’t come out with a new treadmill in 9 years...
Are you saying Rob and/or Sean Whalen have left Alter-G?

I tried out THE original Alter-G in ~1994 when Dr. Rob Whalen worked at Ames Lab near Palo Alto.
It was pretty cool, it was made of a lexan hemisphere and a shop vac.
Nice drive-by brag, bro.
Prices?
What does it cost
Does your friend go by the name of yourself?
It looks like your company is founded by a former director or AG, not the founder.
If you have to ask then you can't afford it.
I just got a job offer from them.
Can you tell me more about the atmosphere in the company?
My email:
1/3 the price so ~ 25k?

The boost is far inferior (hence the cheap price) and here's the comparisons from when I tried it out-
AlterG-
precise unweighting based off body weight
consistency of unweighting
gait analytics
Boost-
does not account for users bodyweight, random numbers of bodyweight support
blower cuts out and there's not consistent pressure
no analytics
You get what you pay for, good luck to Boost surviving!
Is better than both. Less expensive, more comfortable.
I guess everything comes to an end at some point-
ALTERG® FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST BOOST, INC. FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION OF TRADE SECRETS, AND FALSE ADVERTISING

AlterG is looking to sell, negative cash flow and debt strangling the company. I guess Boost is going to have an open season.
I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. I can't put it down.
