Ski, snowboard and guiding at the Arlberg — in Lech, Zürs, St. Anton and on the Sonnenkopf. One-to-one or in a small crew, always tailored to you — more room to play, together.
I've always seen my winter gear as toys and the mountains as one big playground. On piste or off: with me you'll learn to move with smart technique, a few tricks up your sleeve and a big grin.
Learn to ski properly. Get your confidence back. Sharpen your technique, take your tricks off piste — or just cruise the best runs at the Arlberg with me.
Ski lessons
Live the dream of riding sideways. Freeride, freestyle, carving, splitboard — let board and soul hang loose.
Snowboard lessons
Let me take you and your powder-hungry crew into the winter wilderness — from a first ski tour to heli-skiing, (almost) anything goes.
Freeride guiding
I've been teaching snow sports for twenty years, in recent years mostly off piste. Along the way new toys kept joining the game — telemark in 2020, for example, which I've been hooked on ever since, just like every other way of playing in the snow.
In 2025 I followed the call for change: mountainplayground.at is where the right people find each other to let their urge to move run free in the snow.
One thing always comes along: a healthy dose of risk awareness, years of guiding in all kinds of conditions and a feel for the right call when it counts.
The classic: book me for a guiding day and we shape it around whatever you're hungry for. On top of that there are four special offers — from your first ski tour to the helicopter. On skis just as well as on a splitboard — or even with a free heel.
Your first step into the backcountry — at a relaxed pace, with everything you need to know about gear, going up and coming down.
The legendary run. Before we drop in, I'll see where you're at — for example in one of the Schindler gullies.
To the Mehlsack. Before that I want to see how you handle steep terrain — or we prepare together over two days.
Companion rescue, avalanche knowledge, snowpack structure — the craft that makes any off-piste run responsible.
The more toys you can handle, the more ways you have to express yourself on snow.
Not the easiest, but the most elegant way to ski. Now with its own rental in Lech. Free your heels!
One ski, two bindings, full attention. And guaranteed stares on the chairlift.
Skin up, ride down on the board — and yet it feels different from a snowboard. Rental gear comes from me.
No bindings, no edges, loads of feel. Surfing, even though the sea is far away.
My prices are broadly in line with similar providers in each area. For telemark and the other extravaganzas, the rental gear comes free from three hours on — for a splitboard, monoski or powsurf with a bit of notice.
And if you're one of the snow lovers on a tighter budget, we'll find a way. The way is the game!
Put your preferred dates together or just get in touch. I'll get back to you personally, and we'll sort out the details.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you by email or phone. Tell me briefly what you have in mind, and we'll work out together what's possible.
