BERGaufRODEL is a specially built safety sled designed for transport uphill, allowing sleds and riders to be carried up ski slopes using T-bar or disc lifts.
It uses a patented attachment system that lets the sled and rider be transported uphill on T-bar or platter lifts, making sledding easier and more exciting.
The sled includes a reversing lock to prevent uncontrolled backward movement and a hand brake that significantly reduces stopping distance.
Yes. The sled has an automatic brake that engages as soon as no weight is on the seat, preventing the sled from running off on its own.
It’s suitable for sledding activities that involve uphill transport — ideal for ski resorts, mountain huts, and recreational sledding areas looking to enhance their offerings.
Operators report increased sledding participation and revenue after installing BERGaufRODEL, demonstrating higher guest satisfaction and repeat rides.
Yes. The safety features like hand brake, automatic brake, and secure attachment help reduce risks, making it more accessible for inexperienced riders and families.
The system is designed to be compatible with common T-bar and disc lift systems, offering flexibility for installation at various mountain locations.
BERGaufRODEL is a high-quality sports and leisure product designed for professional use in ski resorts. Its attachment system, braking system, and fall brake are manufactured from high-grade stainless steel and engineered for durability, making the product especially well suited for rental operations.
The development of BERGaufRODEL combines hands-on experience from operating a toboggan and ski area with many years of professional expertise in mechanical engineering. Purpose-built production equipment enables precise tube bending with tight radii and complex multi-plane geometries, while modern tube laser technology ensures accurate component manufacturing and clean, high-quality welding.
The ski lift attachment system is available in two versions: one for T-bar lifts and one compatible with both T-bars and tow discs. The hooks are connected by a handle and mounted on a rotating frame that prevents accidental forward folding during loading.
At entry, the passenger grips the handle and frame, attaches the tow rope, and begins the uphill ride. Throughout towing, only minimal force is required. At the top station, the handle is folded forward, automatically releasing the tow rope. The system is designed for reliable release in all situations, including emergencies.
Key benefits:
Easy to attach
Easy to release
Safe in all situations
The fall brake is designed to prevent backward movement during uphill towing. In the event of an unexpected release or rope failure, it automatically engages with the lift track to stop uncontrolled sliding, while remaining unobtrusive during normal forward travel.
“The fall brake prevents the BERGaufRODEL from sliding backwards.
Even on the steepest sections of the lift route, guests have nothing to worry about.”
The automatic stopper is installed under the seat and connected to the auxiliary handbrake via two cables.
Pre-tensioned springs cause the automatic stopper to act against the seat, which in turn engages the handbrake via the two cables.
When a passenger sits down, the automatic stopper rotates towards the track, lifting the brake claws out of the snow. Similar to a ski brake, the automatic stopper prevents the toboggan from rolling away on its own and endangering other winter sports enthusiasts, or from being damaged itself.
