Hans Pieren is a determined man with a strong sense of what is possible. The giant slalom specialist celebrated his greatest successes after he was kicked out of the national squad, changed ski brands and was left without a service man. He grinds and waxes his slats himself. It doesn't matter whether he uses salt and water to conjure up a pimple-hard racing slope from a buttery-soft snow base and thus saves the 2014 Winter Olympics, or whether he transforms a 50-meter-high steel frame into a parallel slalom slope in Moscow and puts a lot of pressure on an oligarch in the processkicks, or kilometers of water hoses are organized around the legendary ChuenisMaking snow on the bärgli slope with water from the Adelboden swimming pool – “Hänsi” is never at a loss for creative and surprising ideas. His iron will and creativity have become a legend in the ski circuit. Hans Pieren always managed to turn the most unfortunate circumstances into a surprising turn for the better.
