Ski servicing by a world champion

Hans Hofer has been a junior world champion and a professional multiple-world champion. After his ski racing career, he worked for the Blizzard and Fischer brands, and most recently worked in the research and development department of the Austrian Ski Association (ÖSV). Since 2010, he has been putting all his knowledge and know-howto use for the Bründl Sports customers and ensures the perfect ski service for your racing skis.

Markus Pertl has been with us since years, and his love for the ski service has developed over the years. He was introduced to the intricacies of the racing service by Hans and it is now impossible to imagine the racing service team without him.

Ernst Neumayer was responsible for the junior Austrian ski racers at Blizzard for years. From children to the Europa Cup skiers, all of them were always provided with the best equipment by Ernst. Now, Ernst ensures the perfect racing service for your racing skis, thanks to his years of experience.

Adjustment by a World Cup servicer

Fabian Stiepel is a professional ski boot fitter. He was a ski boot servicer in the Ski World Cup for six years and, among others, helped the Finnish ski racer Tanja Poutiainen to great success; for example, when the shell of her ski boot tore, Fabian quickly and decretly modelled a replacement boot to her foot.

He now works at Bründl Sports and ensures that all ski racers wear ski boots that fit like a glove and transfer power to the ski optimally.

Our newest team-member is Reinhold Gappmaier. He has worked as a ski boot servicer in the Ski World Cup for 17 years!

As the name implies, Race Service for skis is a professional service package that prepares and maintains skis for racers specifically. By using state-of-the-art technology and equipment, the skis are tuned to the unique needs and demands of each individual skier.

In general, Race Service comprises multiple different steps such as grinding and structuring the ski, application of waxes, and adjusting the bindings.

Overall, Race Service for skis provides valuable support to racers who are focused on delivering top performance on demand.

Our Racing Service is divided into three packages.

Package 1: Includes sidewall planing, base edge beveling, hand filing on the sides, and race-ready waxing for €34.00.
Package 2: Includes sidewall planing, structure grinding, base edge beveling, and race-ready waxing for €55.00. Additional charge for laser structure is €25.00.
Package 3: Includes sidewall planing, structure grinding, base edge beveling, hand filing on the sides, and race-ready waxing for €74.00. Additional charge for laser structure is €25.00

Race Service is primarily intended for racing skiers who want to produce at the top level. Through the use of professional techniques and equipment, the skis are optimally tuned to the needs and demands of each individual. But aside from racing skiers, Race Service might also be of interest to recreational skiers who are looking for especially good glide characteristics and ski performance.

Race Service for skis has lots of benefits for skiers who want to deliver top performance. Through the use of professional techniques and equipment, the skis are optimally tuned to individual needs and demands, leading in turn to improved glide characteristics and ski performance.

Basically all skis can be modified through Race Service. That said, the options and extent of modifications will vary considerably based on the individual characteristics of the ski in question. In general, skis that have been specifically developed for racing purposes can be prepped and given a Race Service more easily.

On the other hand, modifying recreational skis and all-mountain skis for race service is often far more involved. As a rule, these skis are designed less for performance, often featuring different structures and materials that are not readily adapted for racing purposes.

If you want to give your skis a Race Service, there are three things you will need to bring with you:

1. Your skis: Needless to say, you will need to bring the skis you want race-serviced with you.

2. The bindings: As a rule, during any Race Service your bindings will be adjusted as well, so be sure to bring them along.

3. Ski boots: In order to optimally adjust the bindings to your boots, you will also have to bring your ski boots with you.

Additional product services

In addition to the racing service, there is a wide range of other services at Bründl Sports related to your winter equipment. This allows you to be perfectly equipped for your adventure on the slopes!
