What if the future of hiking isn’t lighter gear… but stronger legs?

At CES, the world’s largest technology expo, I tried something I never expected to see outside of science fiction: real, working exoskeletons designed for everyday people — and for the trail.
Check out the @dnsys.ai units here:  https://dada.link/xK9tOv  https://dada.link/yWjkQ5

In this video, I test two hiking-focused exoskeletons from Dnsys:

• The X1 Hip Exoskeleton, built to assist your stride and reduce fatigue on long walks and hikes
• The Z1 Knee Exoskeleton, the world’s first of its kind, designed to protect your knees, add power to each step, and make climbing and descents easier

I also talk with Dnsys COO & co-founder Jojo to talk about why they built these devices, how they work, and their mission to help people stay active, independent, and connected to nature.

With over 10,000 X1 units already in use and the Z1 currently breaking records in crowdfunding, this technology may represent a true “physical revolution” — changing how far we can hike, how long we can explore, and who gets to keep adventuring outdoors.

We also talk about:

• How the Z1 learns your movement patterns in real time
• How it redistributes load to reduce knee strain
• Why it can make users feel dramatically lighter while hiking
• The Death Stranding collaboration and the philosophy of connecting humans, technology, and nature

As someone with multiple knee surgeries, I was especially curious whether this kind of tech could actually make a difference on the trail — and the results surprised me.

Would you hike with an exoskeleton?

Let me know in the comments, and thanks for watching. I’ll see you out there. 🏔️🥾
