Safety through equipment

The right equipment is the basis for safe skiing and at the same time an indispensable tool in emergency situations. With well-functioning and regularly maintained ski equipment, we can not only ensure our own safety, but also effectively help other winter sports enthusiasts in critical situations.

As ski instructors, we have a special responsibility. Our equipment must meet the highest safety standards in order to be able to act optimally both preventively and in an emergency. Professionally maintained equipment enables us to

  • react quickly in emergency situations
  • Safe maneuvering in difficult terrain
  • Effective help in the event of accidents
  • Being a role model for our guests

The combination of optimum equipment and sound know-how is the basis for greater safety on the mountain – for ourselves and for those around us.
