Rollers Sparking While Riding?

Static electricity zaps with rollers

Hey all, I run Kreitler rollers with 2.25 drums, and ride in a basement that has a humidity of around 40-50%. The static electricity zaps are seriously out of hand. Talking 4-5 times per ride minimum. Last month, I got such a zap it caused me to yank my hand off the bars, and the pop was loud. I watched in dismay as my zwift guy just rolled to the side of the road 0w. It zapped the electronics donut on my powertap! With new electronics it worked again fine, but seriously. Any smart people out…
