Dynafit, from alpine skiing to ski touring and trail running
Who hasn’t heard of Dynafit? The brand specialises in ski mountaineering, ski touring, trail running and hiking through its performance-driven products. The story starts in 1950, with the production of ski boots under the name Humanic. 15 years later, the first boots with buckles arrive on the market. Already Dynafit innovates for skiing, first with alpine skiing gear, then ski mountaineering and touring. In 1973, Franz Klammer wins the Planai downhill race in Schladming, Austria, using Dynafit equipment. From then on, the brand’s success continues with eight downhill world cup titles won by Dynafit athletes. In 1980, Leonhard Stock is Olympic champion. There must a reason the brand’s athletes spend so much time on the podiums… It's only the beginning of a story punctuated by many race victories and iconic models associated, such as the World Cup Competition, launched in 1980, the Tourlite ski mountaineering boot in 1983, a revolution for its light weight at the time, and in 1985, the first alpine ski boot with Gore-Tex Thermo Dry membrane. Today, Dynafit is a leading brand in backcountry skiing and ski mountaineering, as well as trail running. A benchmark for anyone eager to enjoy the mountains and high-altitude terrain.
