Königslinie - Magazine for ski culture

The 2nd issue of the scene magazine Königslinie

by Tobias Kurzeder 01/20/2015
The second issue of the young ski magazine "Königslinie - Magazin für Skikultur" has been compiled and designed under the motto "Skiing is more than just skiing". A colorful and illustrious group of authors around the editor-in-chief, publisher and full-blooded skier Philipp Radtke not only takes up the typical topics of winter sports magazines such as travel, equipment, people, etc., but also, quite courageously for such a magazine, highlights topics from the fringe area of skiing.

In the second issue of the magazine, an article traces the development and history of the term "ski" and explains the origins of this modern commonplace word.

In addition to more exotic topics such as the development of successful and unsuccessful architecture in the Alps and a nostalgic look back at memories of childhood days on the village lift of a hill in the foothills of the Alps, classic topics such as travel (Livigno, Dolomites) and equipment news are not neglected.

There's also a report on skiing in China and a portrait of the ski watercolors of mountain guide Ricardo Montaro as well as a report on the mass start race "Der Weiße Rausch" ("The White Rush") in a self-experiment.

The 64-page, large-format and attractively designed magazine pleasantly contains relatively little advertising and costs 5.90 euros.

Königslinie is available from station bookshops, sports stores and kiosks.
