For the Why, continue scrolling :)
We know that taking care of the slopes in a Ski Resort is hard,
that it is constant work and a huge responsability.
We know that Ski Guiding is challenging,
making decisions 24/7.
Sometimes deciding on-the-go if
this or that
slope is safe enough to hit.
Wondering if that day will be
your not so lucky day
and that of your group.
We also know that Ski Patrolling in the backcountry
is highly demanding.
Getting that call of someone that has seen an avalanche
somewhere,
somehow.
Meaning that you need to activate your team,
To search for someone,
somewhere
when it is snowing out there, or freezing cold.
Sometimes travelling a few miles.
Sometimes tens of kms.
Sometimes taking a couple of lifts, a snowmobile, or a heli.
Sometimes on foot.
Sometimes making a huge effort to find someone,
Sometimes to find no-one.
You know what we mean.
Those moments,
when you need to search for your client,
your colleague,
your friend.
That soul that is desperately searching for breath,
under the snow, unable to move.
No one wants to be present in an scenario like that.
No one wants to be in an scenario like that,
whithout being as prepared as possible.
With the best equipment possible.
That's Why we want to bring you
IVAQ Finder.
So that you can add IVAQ Finder to your toolbox
and become
that team,
that unit,
that guide,
that is as prepared as possible.
Now you know the Why.

Don't get me wrong,
with IVAQ Finder you will still have to wake up at 5.30AM,
every morning, every day, all season.
But at least you'll sleep better.
You will still have to perform at your best,
and take your Avalanche Safety courses
every year, every month.
But at least you'll know
that you are now more ready than ever.
You will still have to enter the scene,
probe and unbury the victims.
But at least you'll know
that your chances of success are now higher than ever.
This is like travelling to Italy,
renting a car,
and moving through Naples without GPS.
You can try and reach Pizzeria Nabona,
relying in your good decision-making
and your memory to get there.
Avoiding every single scooter that crosses in front of you,
while you are trying to see if the next turn is Via Napoletana.
Or if you will miss it
and then have to drive your way back...
... because that turn was the one you had memorized.
Or,
you can simply open Google Maps.
That is what we offer.
A true help for your Avalanche Search.
A way of moving faster
A way of remembering where you have already searched.
A way of searching for several victims at the same time,
even if you do not know if there are 1, 2, 3 or even none.
In summary, a way of seeing
what others don't.
Understanding things from above
and sharing all this information with all your peers
in real-time .
You know that even 2 minutes can make the difference.
Make them count.
IVAQ Finder - It's for you.
