SCOTT is pleased to officially announce its strategic collaboration with Heli Guides, Europe’s largest heliski expert, a significant step for both brands capable of offering extraordinary experiences to ski enthusiasts around the world. For over 25 years Heli Guides has been a leader in heliskiing activities in the Alps and specializes in the sector of panoramic and tourist helicopter flights. Thanks to the preparation, professionalism and experience of the pilots and a close-knit and competent team of Alpine Guides, Heli Guides offers enchanting flight experiences in different locations, with the aim of making its customers experience unforgettable days of fresh snow.
At SCOTT, our uncompromising passion for innovation, technology and design is what drives our brand positioning, product development and marketing. We create highly technical garments that are dedicated to sports enthusiasts but also to mountain professionals. Heli Guides employs people who need top-level equipment and clothing to face the most complex meteorological conditions: SCOTT is certainly the reliable partner to carry out this type of activity.
Starting from the 23/24 season SCOTT will be the technical supplier of Heli Guides in all respects, providing a Head To Toe clothing kit which includes the best garments from SCOTT’s Explorair and Vertic collections dedicated to Freetouring and Freeride. This is a high-performance kit that will best support the Guide team and all the Heli Guides staff over the winter. Piero Berbenni – Product Manager SCOTT Winter: “The supply of material to Heli Guides represents an important opportunity for Scott to establish itself among the top brands that offer clothing and technical ski equipment. A careful selection of garments and accessories was made that could fully satisfy the needs of the Alpine Guides, guaranteeing performance and maximum comfort during working days in fresh snow.”
Simone Besana – Sales Manager SCOTT Winter: “This partnership represents an important opportunity for both companies to expand their presence in the freeride world. We are excited to collaborate with such an esteemed partner in the heliskiing industry and to offer our customers unique and unforgettable experiences.”
Heli Guides CEO Marco Appino added: “Being able to dress our Alpine Guides with high quality material in order to guarantee maximum comfort, safety and pleasure in carrying out our work is essential. The details define the level of quality of a garment, we have found in SCOTT an excellent level that will only grow as a result of this partnership.”
