E-Outdoor company profile

E-Outdoor is pioneering the future of ski mountaineering with E-SKIMO, the first electric-assisted ski touring device designed to make uphill climbs effortless and accessible for a broader range of skiers. Inspired by the success of e-bikes in mountain biking, E-SKIMO enables skiers to conquer challenging ascents with ease, all while maintaining the full downhill experience. The E-SKIMO system consists of a lightweight, detachable electric motor, sensors, and a battery that powers a traction belt. The innovative design allows users to ascend up to 400% faster while reducing physical exertion by 30%. When it’s time to descend, the motor is easily removed, leaving skiers to enjoy a traditional, uncompromised skiing experience. Founded by Nicola Colombo and Ivan Mura, E-Outdoor is a B2B company that partners with ski manufacturers to integrate the E-SKIMO system into their ski lines, similar to how e-bike motor systems are incorporated by cycling brands. The company is poised to revolutionize the industry, opening ski mountaineering to new markets by making it more accessible for skiers of all fitness levels. With over 2 years of R&D, E-Outdoor is preparing for its market launch in the 2025/2026 season, aiming to establish partnerships with major players in the ski industry and to drive innovation in the outdoor sports market.
