Tom Leitner

After several years in the business, the Innsbruck-based ski film production company "Legs of Steel" has become one of the biggest in Europe. Last year, we didn't see a film from the friends of steep slopes, big kickers and cultivated heavy metal, but only the mocumentary "#skigoodmoneywillcome". This year, they present Passenger, the result of two years of work. To mark the start of the film, we asked Tobi Reindl, the head of the LoS crew, and the Tyrolean and Bavarian owners of steel legs Raphi Webhofer, Fabi Lentsch and Tom Leitner for an interview.

Since this season, the Swiss alpine specialist Mammut has also been offering a vest in its range of airbag backpacks and is thus consistently working on expanding its freeride range. At first glance, an airbag vest appears to be a purely niche product. In an extensive test, various testers tested the vest for function and practicality and realized that the vest is more suitable for everyday use than they had initially assumed.

Most PG readers will be familiar with the name Tom Leitner from his participation in the Freeride World Tour. As one of the first to show freestyle elements in big mountain contests, he is certainly one of those riders who can win a tour stop at any time, as long as he gets his line down cleanly. In addition to contest riding, he also found a little time to film during the past season.
