FLY! – Ski and Fly Friday - SaMo

Introduction to Your Future of Freeriding/Ski Touring

Don't have a license to fly yet? No problem, now you can try it under professional instruction!

When it's green below, you often end your ski tour or freeride descent too early. Unfortunately, the arduous foot descent is increasingly becoming a challenge in the future due to "modern winters" and global warming.

With a lightweight single skin (max. 2kg including harness), you too can comfortably fly with your skis to the Après Ski or the next Powder Run in the future.

At the Ski & Fly Workshop, we introduce you to this new world and provide you with a springboard to learn this fascinating possibility.

On a practice slope at Trübsee, you will learn the essential basics of equipment and weather, starting with skis, flying, and landing. If you're talented, you can also experience the feeling of half-flying and half-skiing.
