"HAGAN hikes" - this is the motto of the new summer series, in which we are out and about with special HAGAN personalities.
Florian Kollros-Farthofer, Managing Director of HAGAN Ski GesmbH, is drawn to the Lech Valley - to the smallest municipality in Austria, Gramais, to be precise.
Because this is where Hubs Lindner lives and works as a mountain guide - our interview partner for the latest HAGAN hikes series.
Listen to it now:
The full interview with Hubs Lindner - about his career turnaround and his life with a pack.
In August, Florian Hubs visits Lindner - who shows him the Lechtal Alps.
The two are led by seven huskies, who have become Hubs' constant companions.
With the huskies in the team, the walking speed is immediately faster and the conversations more intense.
How the Lower Austrian ended up in Gramais and why he swapped his suit for mountain boots - Hubs Lindner talks to HAGAN Wandert about exactly this turnaround in his life.
You can listen to the whole conversation here. ⇒
HAGAN BOOST 94
Despite its waist with of 94 mm, the downhill-oriented touring ski remains pleasantly light on the ascent. Thanks to carbon reinforcements at the tip and tail, the BOOST 94 boasts impressive stability and flexibility - characteristics that are also confirmed by Hubs Lindner.
"The BOOST 94 is simply a weapon for me when the conditions are choppy, the snow is rutted or the snow gets hard.
It's simply like a piste ski. It absorbs vibrations very differently to other models," says Hubs Lindner about his chosen HAGAN model.
