It is a company which manufactures Ski, but no shoes. It’s about a young woman who is stubborn, but ill-advised. It is an Association that wants to help, but can’t give in.
Katharina Liensberger, Skier from Austria, has created a brand switching from Rossignol to Kästle for a small earthquake in the scene. The change in the spring was astonished, it was the competition of the world Cup-Second in the team total-12. in the world Cup but more than appealing run.
The Vorarlberg-based company wanted to but with the Vorarlberg racer after a 22-year absence, was back on the big stage, the offer accordingly lucrative. Where money alone is not happiness – it must be a part of it.
The naive attitude
That Liensberger will get to the honey pots, seems unlikely. But first things first: Since this year, Kästle, such as approximately 300 other companies, is part of the Austria Ski Pool. Only members of this Association are allowed to equip the athletes of the Austrian ski Federation (ÖSV).
Great Nations have such a Pool that the recording has its price. The Swiss ski brand Stöckli about not belongs to that of the ÖSV. Skis, boots, bindings, poles, helmet, goggles, gloves – all utensils must come from a Pool member. Without a valid equipment contracts, the athletes get no license.
In the contract between Liensberger and Kästle is that the Athlete skis and boots are provided. Stupid only, produced Kästle no footwear. The charge had asked the ÖSV, if you can buy in the case of a Pool member’s shoes. This was answered with Yes, office add-on, you must speak with the company.
it was Planned that Liensberger would go with a Shoe with the company for a Long time. For a long time but is part of the Rossignol group.
Kästle moved to the “Talk” on the mere purchase of the products, not the conclusion of a contract. It speaks neither for the company nor for Liensberger, they knew not the decades of standard rules. It was planned that Liensberger would go with a Shoe with the company for a Long time. For a long time but is part of the Rossignol group. Which snubbed by the departure of Talent – the Deal is not accepted.
The Ultimatum
Kästle has failed to develop partnerships with manufacturers of shoes and ties. As it has done Stöckli, no Shoe producer,. Apparently, it is Kästle’s hard to find allies, because of the inroads the competition is snubbed against a Gentlemen’s Agreement was violated. A newcomer to the Skipool is to equip at the beginning of exclusively student athletes. It is not surprising, because, also, was Kästle from the Austria Ski Pool are to be terminated in 2021 already again.
The Power of the pool, it is huge. Drivers and manufacturers would be protected, because the rules and contracts, quality and planning security for both sides is guaranteed, which means it. Comparisons of cases such as the Causa Liensberger has never existed, Lara gut-Behrami had been locked up in 2010 for two races because they are not carried in the official Swiss-Ski-occasions dresses from a Supplier, a member of the Skipool face.
Some of the games do not
in eight days, will be locked
Liensberger –
for the whole Winter.
The AUSTRIAN ski Federation has several times thrown in. The actual deadline passed three months ago, already then, especially since Liensberger could have been an Association of training are excluded. ÖSV-representative smoothed the waves in the case of Rossignol, ensured that the French Liensberger want to resume. Your Status would be but little more of the same.
And: Rossignol offers any one-year, but wants to contract a two-year. But the Slalom and the giant slalom, a driver not signed, which is why she was allowed three weeks ago in Soelden will not start.
there is no Alternative, the transfer window is long. The games not agree to in eight days, is Liensberger locked for the whole Winter. Scene connoisseurs believe that the 22-Year-old have bad Einflüsterer, some hold a Nations exchange possible, other close not once, that the athlete will ride the legal way. Affaire à suivre.
