They are all self employed, highly trained and very experienced to guarantee a maximum level of safety.
All of our guides speak English (in a more or less fluent "austrian-english" version...) and they are excellent skiers.
For sure our focus is to have our team, that works for many years for us skiing with you!

dslv_blau.pngOur Safety Guides are trained DSLV ski instructors (German ski instructor association) from our pro ski school.
They work closely with the mountain guides, follow the group to make sure no one falls behind, to pick up lost skis, to hold the group together...
The Sport65 Safety Guides are one of the most effctive advantages compared with any other company: Fluent and safe runs are guaranteed!
The Safety Guides are the biggest difference to all other freeride companys - give us a try and you will see...

S65_TOP_estab_Blue.pngAnd one more unique thing: We are one of Germanys most known Freeride-Shop!
