Hirscher and Tschofenig: The triumph of the new ski jumping generation!

Marcel Hirscher, the skiing superstar, has discovered a new dimension of his commitment, against the backdrop of a remarkable triumph: Daniel Tschofenig won the renowned Four Hills Tournament. The Carinthian athlete jumps with skis from the Augment brand, which were acquired in 2022 by Van Deer, a company that Hirscher co-founded. In his blog, 35-year-old Hirscher raves about Tschofenig's success and explains that the young ski eagle has the potential to be an asset to the sport and the team. Despite the torn cruciate ligament he suffered in December, Hirscher is using his rehabilitation time to follow his athletes' performances up close and be inspired.

As the website vandeer-redbull-sports.de reports, Tschofenig is supported by Hirscher's so-called “competition intelligence”, which is reflected in the high-performance ski materials. Toni Giger, sports director at Van Deer, emphasizes that Hirscher's innovative strength flows into every product of the brand. Tschofenig, who is only 22 years old, not only benefits from highly developed material, but also from a supportive team culture that relies on collaboration and the holistic development of talent. Tschofenig himself is optimistic and will take the momentum from his tour victory with him into the upcoming World Cup stages.

Inspiring collaboration

The synergy between the athletes and the Van Deer and Augment brands shows that the path to sporting success goes beyond individual ability. Tschofenig emphasizes that the right material and a supportive environment are crucial for top sporting performance. “The key to success is when all elements work together in harmony,” he explains. Considering the potential that Tschofenig has within him and the innovative approaches of Van Deer's team, expectations are high that he will continue to shine in the coming competitions.

The entire sports community is excited to see how Tschofenig and Hirscher will continue to develop as the new “Tschofenig Airlines” start the next season. This combination of technological advances and human potential sets new standards in skiing that captivate both athletes and fans.
