Unique opportunity to directly compare the latest safety products from PIEPS, ORTOVOX and MAMMUT in a "real" scenario on the avalanche field.

Find your buddy in no time!

You've already gained a lot of experience in freeriding or ski touring. You regularly go out with your buddies and everything has gone well so far. Keep up the good work!

But let's be honest: if something goes wrong and your ski buddy is "caught" in an avalanche, things have to happen very quickly. In this workshop, you can get your skills up to scratch! Because you have to be trained for emergencies, even if you already have experience. That's the only way you stand a chance.

Workshop Content:

  • Refresher/Crash course in avalanche rescue procedures
  • 2 prepared, realistic avalanche fields in the terrain:
  • __ No. 1 Easy – Single BurialWe have prepared an avalanche field of a classic skier-triggered avalanche (medium to large slab) ==> Find Mr. Olsson, a life-sized dummy, in under 15 minutes! Many focus only on the "fine search" with the device, which is too easy and gives a false sense of security. Here, you have a unique opportunity to gain routine and confidence in the entire avalanche rescue process: signal search, coarse search, fine search, probing and shoveling, first aid, helicopter rescue. The entire process is required!
  • __ No. 2 Complex – Multiple BurialsWhen it gets more challenging and 2 people are buried, you have no chance without training. Now, you need to rescue Mrs. Popov and Mr. Eriksson under the snow! We'll show you the process, and then it's your turn to practice.

Equipment: Use your own gear or test the LATEST devices from Pieps, Mammut, or Ortovox!
