About the company

The company was founded by Peter Slatnar’s father, who was also named Peter. He established a metal workshop in his garage and created products for use in the aerospace, automotive and culinary industry. Peter Slatnar Junior, who in his youth made a career in ski jumping, decided later on to focus on the production of ski jumping bindings and other sports products.

In 2006, Peter Slatnar Junior made a breakthrough in the world of ski jumping with an innovative carbon heel and founded the company Slatnar Carbon. Slatnar’s bindings became an instant hit with ski jumpers: by 2012 they were used by more than half of the professional athletes.

In 2016, the ski jumping manufacturer Elan exited the industry. Then Peter Slatnar stepped in and agreed to take over under his Slatnar brand. To begin with, equipment and machines were rented from Elan, and people with many years of experience working in this field remained in production.

Slatnar’s skis and bindings have established themselves as one of the leaders in the world. At the same time, the company expanded its team, strengthened its machine park and began to experiment in the development of other products, such as harpoons, cross-country skates, skeleton sleds and measuring devices for FIS. Manufacturing to order continues to be a competitive advantage.

After breaking through with bindings, he devoted himself to the program of shoes for jumpers made of carbon. They make three types of ski jumping boots, for members, for the youngest and universal. In 2021, he saw an opportunity in bindings for ski touring, with which the company will soon penetrate the market.
