Five faces, one passion: we introduce our splitboard guides

Our splitboard tours are not just unforgettable experiences - they are adventures created by experienced and passionate guides. Each of our five guides brings a unique story, an unmistakable personality and in-depth know-how to the mountains. Together, they will take you on tours off the beaten track and reveal the beauty and challenges of the snowy winter landscapes. In this article, we introduce you to our guides in more detail.

Sandra Heinz - Your splitboard guide in the wild Avers Valley

Sandra lives in the remote Avers Valley and knows the peace and beauty of this place like no other.

In summer, she is passionate about looking after the animals on the alp, while in winter she is out and about in the snowy mountains on her splitboard.

She knows every corner of the valley and ensures that you can experience nature up close and in safe company.

Moritz Heiser - Your splitboard guide for the Bernese Oberland

Moritz, MoH for short, brings the best of two worlds to the mountains: the ease of surfing and a fascination for the snow. After several winters in Graubünden, he moved to the Bernese Oberland, where he works as a splitboard guide and communications specialist. He prefers to spend his weekends on his "Ränch" somewhere in the snowy Oberland.

On the road as a splitboard guide since 2016, MoH brings the combined experience of 25 seasons as a surf and snowboard instructor - and his passion for transferring the surf feeling to the snow. For him, every tour with Radical is simply "rad(ical)".

Niki Huwyler - your splitboard guide and Radical veteran with boundless passion

Niki has been active in the snowboard scene for over 30 years and is a true Radical veteran.

Open and full of conviction, he inspires his guests on his splitboard tours.

As a former professional athlete and team rider for Radical and Scott as well as an expert at the SSBS, he brings in-depth knowledge and a real passion. On the board since 1988, he learned snowboarding from scratch - back then with a self-built board.

Today, Niki also works as a web developer and mediamatics expert and combines a love of nature with technical finesse in all his projects.
