Kästle

In 1924, Anton Kästle built the first pair of skis in his wainwright workshop in Hohenems, Austria – thus starting a unique legacy. Over the decades that followed, Toni Sailer, the Epple sisters, Pirmin Zurbriggen, Tom Stiansen, and countless other skiing legends would represent Kästle, collectively winning 132 Olympic and World Cup medals and creating a worldwide fanbase along the way.

In 1998, the iconic brand unexpectedly disappeared from the market. However, in 2007, thanks to an investment group controlled by Rudolf Knünz, Kästle was back on the international skiing scene. Once again, they created skis that set the standard for the entire industry: bringing construction technology from racing and applying it to all-mountain skis, and developing the groundbreaking Hollowtech system.

Kästle continues to set impressive industry standards year after year. And since 2015, this has taken place back where it all began – in Hohenems. History made in Austria.
