If tools could talk

Here’s one of the best freeski and snowboard training camps in the world, and behind all the boards, skis and backpacks, is a Hilti cordless hammer drill and chisel hammer in the snow.

This is the Freestyle Park on the Stubai Glacier with the panorama of the Tyrolean Alps spread out in the background. But what people don’t always think about are the barrier fences that lock the freeskiers to the Prime Line, which have to be reinstalled every day. That’s where Hilti tools come in.

With a powerful hammer drill and chisel hammer and a reliable battery, you can get pretty far. But the insertion tool also has a significant part in how conveniently and quickly a hole can be drilled.

It is logical that a special drill is used on the glacier. With a chrome-plated and thus rust-free tip that is optimized for ice and scree, as well as a light helix for easy transport, the Hilti snow and scree drill was specially developed for setting goal poles in skiing.
