Zinermann’s expertise attracts top athletes. Custom snowboard boot preparation for Polish champions shows their high-level service.
In Livigno, Zinermann is a well-known name in winter sports. It’s trusted not only by snowboarding enthusiasts but also by professional athletes who need expert support before big competitions.
Recently, Zinermann prepared custom snowboard boots for two top athletes from the Polish national alpine snowboarding team: Aleksandra Król and Maria Bukowska-Chyc.
Aleksandra Król is a top athlete in alpine snowboarding, with several World Cup wins and bronze medals at the World Championships. Maria Bukowska-Chyc is currently the highest-ranked Polish snowboarder, with an 8th-place finish in the World Cup and a bronze medal in the European Cup.
Detailed preparation: the champions’ secret
To prepare for the upcoming World Cup season, Zinermann’s team offered a specialized snowboard boot fitting service for Aleksandra and Maria.
An expert boot fitter worked carefully to make sure the boots fit perfectly. The process included using custom footbeds and foam-injected liners from the brands UPZ and SIDAS.
These customized elements help improve power transfer between the rider’s foot and the snowboard, which increases responsiveness and control. A perfect fit also means greater comfort and less energy wasted—key factors when races are won by milliseconds.
This kind of customization and attention to detail is what sets Zinermann apart. Their expert care doesn’t stop at the boots—it extends to the entire snowboard setup.
The importance of technical support
The value of great technical preparation can also be seen in the success of Maurizio Bormolini, a local athlete from Livigno who won the 2025 Parallel Snowboard World Cup. Zinermann’s Z-Experts prepared his snowboard, proving how expert setup can make the difference in top-level competition.
The same level of care given to professional athletes is available to all snowboarders. Zinermann’s staff is a trusted partner for anyone who wants to hit the slopes with top performance and maximum safety.
Whether you're a champion or an everyday rider, Zinermann offers world-class expertise to help you ride your best.
