The digital training platform
Ski touring and freeriding are becoming increasingly popular and more and more people are active outside of the secured ski area. Lab Snow is a free digital training platform on avalanche safety and aims to ensure greater safety on the mountain.
The southern German company Ortovox has been focussing on safety in the mountains since it was founded. In collaboration with the Association of German Mountain and Ski Guides (VDBS) and safety and first aid experts, the Safety Academy Lab Snow was revised in 2023. The topic of avalanche safety has been raised to a very high level in four chapters with 16 video tutorials. Ortovox offers the online Lab Snow training portal free of charge. A great opportunity for ski tourers and freeriders to complete a high-quality avalanche awareness programme from anywhere.
The complex topic of avalanche safety is presented online for all skill levels in four chapters with interactive learning modules and quizzes. Lab Snow introduces newcomers to safety topics step by step, but existing knowledge can also be refreshed and reviewed. The digital training platform from Ortovox thus provides access to important safety knowledge, prepared for all outdoor enthusiasts.
