Viking heliskiing ground & office crew
Our ground & office crew is the one that stays in touch with our guests from the first e-mail until they go home. No operation could work without the whole crew and especially without them; we love that these skilled, kind and fun to be around people are part of Viking Heliskiing.
SARA – Operation Manager
Coming from Slovakia, Sara lived in Iceland for five years and joined our crew in 2022. She has loved snowboarding since she was a child, and after years of freestyle snowboarding, she also discovered the beauty of freeriding.
Sara studied Diplomacy & Politics, but soon after university, Marketing & Freestyle Snowboard Events organizing crossed her path, and she has worked in this field for over a decade. Because of her skills we are happy that she is our Operation Manager making sure everything is running smooth until the last detail off and on season, as we couldn’t ask for a better “skilled human” in these fields to join our team.
Out of work, Sara loves to spend time with her daughter, go snowboard or splitboard with friends, train Crossfit, swimming & yoga, have a good laugh and party on occasion (as she says, afterparties of the snowboard/ski events are the best).
LENA – Guests’ Manager
Lena is always ready to welcome our guests, and be there for them during their stay. Lena comes from Germany, but as she says herself, she only rents her apartment there and instead travels the world all year round. She worked as an Event manager in the past, and she loves snowboarding, so every chance to be in the helicopter she gets, she doesn’t stay sitting in her office chair. She takes care of us and guests and ensures everything is running as smoothly as possible during the season.
ROSTISLAV “Ross” – Ground Manager
Ross is our Ground Manager. Ensuing everything on the ground is working, and has its place. Sometimes it can mean to fix cars and other broken things, refueling helicopters and cars, make sure bowsers are on the correct spots, buying unnecessary items to help everyone with what they need.
We are happy to have him as part of our crew. Ross comes from the Czech Republic but has lived on and off in Iceland for about eight years. He loves hiking, parachuting, ski touring, heliskiing, and being in nature is his best way to live.
MAGNÚS “Maggi” – “Dream Driver”
Born and raised in Ólafsfjörður, Iceland, Maggi is our dream team driver that makes sure our guests are picked up at the airport and that they don’t miss their flights home. In his free time, you will find him riding mountains on his snowmobile or playing football with his youngest daughter.
