WINTERSTEIGER strengthens its Sports division: QBL joins the Group 🤙🏾

QBL, a well-established provider of storage and drying systems, is part of the WINTERSTEIGER Group and integrated into our new Storage Systems business field within the Sports division.

Starting in 2027, the QBL product line will be available in the US and Canada.

Together, we’re taking a big step forward. With smart, integrated solutions, we’re expanding our portfolio along the entire customer journey - from ski & bike service to rental & depot systems, shop equipment, and complete store fit-outs at the point of sale.

The result? Fewer interfaces. Smoother processes. More impact. QBL – welcome to our family! 💚

From Moirans 🇫🇷 to the Olympic podium.🇮🇹

We’re excited to share this great feature from WINTERSTEIGER France, captured during a TV spot airing in the Olympic Games coverage in France: “The Champions Ski Workshop.”

Filmed inside the heart of Rossignol’s Racing Department in Moirans, near Grenoble, the report highlights where the world’s best FIS skis for Rossignol and Dynastar are engineered, tested, and prepared for peak performance.

And the Olympics are already proving just what that precision can do:
🏅 Several medals on Rossignol alpine racing skis.

In the background of the interview, you’ll spot two of our own:
✨ WINTERSTEIGER Jupiter ski tuning machines

WINTERSTEIGER proudly supports Rossignol’s technicians as they craft the race-ready performance that champions rely on.

We’re honored to stand behind the brands and teams shaping the future of ski racing—one perfectly tuned ski at a time.

When it comes to skiing safety, proper binding calibration and release is paramount. That’s why the top ski shops and resorts choose the WINTERSTEIGER Safetronic binding tester. Its ease of use, accuracy and consistency are second to none.

Most manufacturers recommend annual binding testing. When’s the last time you had yours tested?

There’s no better time to do it than with your first tune of the season, so you can start every season off right with bindings and edges you can trust.

Nothing beats that first ride of the season … unless your edges are dull and your bases aren’t flat. 😬 Get a fresh tune-up and let your skis shine. Swing by your local ski shop to get your skis or snowboard dialed in with a WINTERSTEIGER Jupiter ski service machine. 🚀 Ask for it by name!
