Approach run, cooling and control
The approach track, cooling, and control form the run-up section. They are designed together because the track structure, cooling lines, and regulation depend on each other.
Modernize ski jumping hill
Peter Riedel GmbH modernizes the technology in the approach of existing ski jumps. This includes the entry track, cooling, control, winches and milling technology.
What it means to modernize a ski jump
Modernization begins with the technology in the approach, not with the entire hill facility. The new components are coordinated with each other and with the existing stock.
What can remain from the existing structure
Substructures made of concrete, steel, or wood can generally be reused if suitable for the planned technology. We check this for each installation.
Which technology in the entry is renewed
Preparation of the winter track
Winch and milling technology prepare the entry track. Both must fit the installed system and the planned use.
This is how the technical modernization works
-
Submit inquiry
They request the modernization of your ski jumping hill. For the first contact, a short description of the facility is sufficient.
-
Clarify project personally
Peter Riedel will get in touch with you personally. In the conversation, the existing system, the technical need, and the planned use will be clarified.
-
Coordinate technology
We assess which existing areas can be reused and which technology is needed anew.
-
Implement modernization
After the technical planning, the agreed systems are produced, installed, and jointly brought into operation.

Frequently asked questions about the modernization of ski jumping hills
Which technology can Peter Riedel GmbH fully modernize?
We modernize the approach track, cooling, control, winches, and milling technology.
Can existing external technology be reused in the modernization?
No. As a modernization solution we exclusively use technology from our own development. We will clarify which existing components can be reused and which interfaces are required for the system.
Can the launch tower and substructure remain intact?
Suitable substructures made of concrete, steel, or wood can generally be reused. Their condition and suitability for the new technology must be checked beforehand.
What role do FIS requirements play in the modernization?
FIS requirements form the planning framework. We clarify with the association or the ski jump inspector which documents and approvals a specific jump needs.
Is there a maintenance contract after the modernization?
Yes, maintenance contracts can be arranged for ongoing support.
Clarify modernization personally with Peter Riedel
Describe to us briefly the ramp and what should be renewed. Peter Riedel will contact you personally and clarify setup, stock, and demand.
