Made in Bormio since 1946

SKI TRAB BEGAN AS A PASSION PROJECT FOR GIACOMO TRABUCCHI, WHO IN 1946, IN A FLASH OF INTUITION, BUILT HIS FIRST PAIR OF SOLID WOOD SKIS. OUR FACTORY IS IN BORMIO, A WELL-KNOWN SKI RESORT AND HOME TO MANY SPORTING CHAMPIONS AND MOUNTAIN PROFESSIONALS. SURROUNDED AS WE ARE BY SO MANY EXPERT SKI TOURERS, WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO CREATE PRODUCTS THAT GENUINELY MEET THEIR NEEDS.
BORMIO IS NOT JUST THE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE WHERE SKI TRAB SKIS ARE MADE.
“MADE IN BORMIO” MEANS THAT A PRODUCT WAS DESIGNED, DEVELOPED AND BUILT BY A COMPANY AND BY PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERTS ON EVERYTHING TO DO WITH MOUNTAINS AND SKI TOURING. ALL SKI TRAB PRODUCTS ARE FRUIT OF THE EXPERIENCE, EXPERTISE AND KNOWLEDGE GAINED IN ALMOST 80 YEARS OF SKIING, LIVING AND WORKING IN THE MOUNTAINS. HERE AT SKI TRAB, WE UNDERSTAND THE SPORT, SPIRIT AND CULTURE OF SKIING—WE LIVE IT EVERY DAY. JOIN US ON OUR EPIC SKI TOURING MISSION AND EXPERIENCE FOR YOURSELF THE BEST TOURING SKIS OUT THERE.

We made the history of lightweight skiing

MAKING HISTORY IN 1970, WE LAUNCHED OUR FIRST PAIR OF TOURING SKIS, MARKING A SIGNIFICANT MOMENT IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COMPANY.
SINCE THEN, WE HAVE HAD THE PRIVILEDGE OF BEING PART OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE SPORT, MAKING STATE-OF-THE-ART PRODUCTS DESIGNED TO BE LIGHTWEIGHT, RELIABLE AND EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH QUALITY, AND CEMENTING OUR REPUTATION AS SKI TOURING PIONEERS.

14 Layer Technology

WE HAVE DEVELOPED A LIGHTWEIGHT TECHNOLOGY WITH 14 LAYERS ALLOWING US TO MODEL THE STRUCTURE OF THE SKI TO OUR EXACT REQUIREMENTS.

A PRODUCTION PROCESS THAT USES AN ULTRALIGHT CORE WHILE ALSO PROVIDING MAXIMUM ANTI-TORSIONAL STRENGTH.
14 INDIVIDUAL LAYERS WRAP THE CORE TO REACH THE DESIRED FLEX VALUES WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE STABILITY, TORSIONAL FLEXIBILITY AND DURABILITY OF THE SKI IN ANY WAY.

Aramid Core

Aramid Core

ARAMID IS A SYNTHETIC FIBER USED IN AEROSPACE AND MILITARY APPLICATIONS FOR ITS INCREDIBLE STRENGTH AND RESISTANCE. OUR LIGHTWEIGHT ARAMID HONEYCOMB CORE IS THE BEST ON THE MARKET IN TERMS OF STRENGTH-TO-WEIGHT RATIO, PROVIDING LONG-LASTING STABILITY, PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY.

Liwood Air

FOR A LIGHTWEIGHT, POWERFUL, DURABLE SKI.
WOOD IS THE MOST USED RAW MATERIAL IN SKI PRODUCTION. FOR YEARS DESIGNERS HAVE TRIED TO FIND ONE THAT IS LIGHTWEIGHT YET DURABLE AND STRONG, BUT IT’S IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ALL THESE QUALITIES IN ONE TYPE OF WOOD.
A LIGHTWEIGHT WOOD CORE NEEDS TO BE PROPERLY PROCESSED AND BLENDED WITH OTHER TYPES OF WOOD TO IMPROVE ITS STRENGTH. IT’S THEN WRAPPED IN COMPOSITE MATERIALS WHICH PROVIDE TORSIONAL RIGIDITY AND DURABILITY. THE AIR DUCTS MAKE THE SKI LIGHTER WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE STRUCTURE.
