Breaking Boundaries: Bernt Marius Rørstad Joins Salomon's Global Team We are thrilled to welcome Bernt Marius to the international team! For the past five years, he has been a dedicated ambassador for Salomon Norway. His journey has been nothing short of inspiring. Following a life-changing accident, Bernt was determined to return to the slopes. Through sheer determination and innovation, he not only resumed skiing but began conquering lines he had never attempted before. To achieve his skiing goals, Bernt immediately began developing a custom prototype for his amputated leg after his accident. So when Salomon recently unveiled its own ski touring prosthetic prototype, it became evident that Bernt’s relentless pursuit of excellence was essential for this project. Recently, Bernt Marius visited the Salomon Annecy Design Center to sign his contract with the international team, explore our prototype, and put it to the test on snow. His feedback has already been invaluable in refining and enhancing our design. We still have a lot of work to do before finalizing our prototype, but we’re more motivated than ever to transform the future of ski touring prosthetics together with Bernt Marius!

"With the Salomon Foundation, we found the perfect partner to build together crazy projects to increase our impact and open new horizons to cancer survivors. They come with us during our adventures, they are part of the team." - Mateo Dornier, Cimas de la Esperanza On this World NGO Day, we celebrate the incredible work of the Salomon Foundation in 2024. In addition to supporting mountain professionals facing life accidents, the foundation proudly supported 22 associations across France, Italy, Spain, the UK, Sweden, Norway, Finland, the USA, Mexico, and India (with Canada soon to join). We estimate that we have helped around 4,000 people this year, striving to make outdoor sports accessible to all, with a focus on four pillars: diversity, disability, education, and inclusiveness.
