I was traveling a lot through Kavkaz, Baikal, Mongolia, Venezuela, Alps, Slovakia and Czech republic. It was fun to explore the connection between the far away lands. I was fascinated by the snow technology and when i came across this industry, I felt like it was not very far from my original occupation as ranger. It had the same qualities: the woods, fresh air and the fine old woodlanders I loved. Many things could by done only based on a handshake, trust and a man\u00b4s word. It was necessary to pay each skiresort a visit everytime, when I needed to make a bussiness plan. I had to come up with a new approach, get to know the staff working there, introduce myself, make a connection.\u00a0Than bring the customers right to the piste, sometimes even at night&#8230; set up a snowcannon and demonstrate how it works. It was a tough job to sell a piece of technology. Therefore I needed to deserve the trust first. So a few times during winter I had to organise a promotion of machinery and technology of snowsystems in Alps or at home,( Vr\u00e1tna, Tatry, Zuberec, Jasn\u00e1, alebo Zell am See, Sterzing, passo Stelvio, Grenoble&#8230;)\u00a0 to kick start the sales.\u00a0<strong><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowwork.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1B_SaltoAngel1.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\">Salto Angel waterfall 986m, Venezuela (photo)\u00a0<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snowwork.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/1C_Samarkand-21.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox\">Uzbekistan-Samarkand (photo)<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who is Peter Horn\u00edk?\u00a0 (foto)\u00a0 And why is he the \u201c Master of snow? \u201c\u00a0Let the results speak for themselves.
