Sled Making Fluckinger - Langkampfen

From Professional Luger to Sled Maker
Georg Fluckinger has turned his passion into a profession, building sleds for almost forty years: first to win sports competitions, and after the end of his professional career, to bring joy to others. The Langkampfen native is now one of Tyrol's largest sled manufacturers, delighting customers from Switzerland to Vienna with his handcrafted sports equipment.

Even in active times, the trained carpenter adjusted his racing sled himself before competitions until it was perfectly tuned. This passion for sled building continued after his professional career, and he built a workshop in his home in Langkampfen. Here, sleds for beginners and experts, for adults and children, are handcrafted: from mini sleds to women's and men's sleds, from sports sleds with steering ropes to two-seaters.

The Fine Difference
So what makes the Fluckinger sled special? "You can go through 90 degrees with it," explains the former professional athlete. "It runs so well that it’s fun to go sledding." Additionally, Fluckinger is the only sled maker who uses reflective straps to ensure even more safety for customers.

A Quality Product That Brings Joy for Many Years
The price of the handmade sleds ranges between 100 and 300 euros, depending on the model. In return, you get a genuine quality piece. With proper care, a sled can bring joy for many years: Fluckinger and his team often service sleds that are over 20 years old. Those who wish to buy a Fluckinger sled can do so either through the webshop or by visiting Georg Fluckinger’s workshop in Langkampfen directly.
