After the uphill run your legs are burning, and the descent starts in a crowd. A ski crossing your neighbour's, heavy spring snow, and the knee twists. Medical cover up to €150,000 pays for consultations, MRI scans, hospital stays and ligament surgery when you need it.
With 1,500 skiers on the same slope, an injured racer has to be taken off the course quickly, often by sled or helicopter. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost handle the evacuation, any hospital stay in Austria and your return home, wherever you live.
The Homerun may feel like a party, but it is a timed race with rankings, and official competition is often excluded from ordinary policies. The Competition option covers you for this March race and for every other official race in your ski season.
A high-speed fall on the descent or a collision with another racer can leave an unstable knee, a stiff shoulder or more serious injuries. If permanent disability is recognised, a lump sum of up to €200,000 helps you adapt your everyday life and your work.
The classic Homerun mistake happens on the way up. Carried along by the mass-start buzz, amateurs sprint, go into the red and start the descent with burning thighs. Add March snow that changes by the hour, hundreds of skiers around you and patchy visibility, and a fall becomes likely.
The rest of the winter, between resort days, off-piste outings and other races, the risk does not go away. Alpine ski insurance covers you in training and in competition, in Austria, France or anywhere else, whatever your country of residence, from the first snowfall to the end of the season.
The Red Bull Homerun takes place in March in the Hochkönig area of Salzburg province. Around 1,500 participants set off together on foot uphill, then ski down to the finish. The race welcomes amateurs as well as seasoned skiers looking for a different kind of challenge.
Sending hundreds of skiers down the same slope at once is a big responsibility. We insure all your participants under a single policy. During the race, medical assistance can be reached day and night, and repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also become a partner or sponsor of your event.
Yes. The race is one event from start line to finish. A fall on the climb, a sprain while running on snow or a collision as you put your skis on fall under the same cover as the descent.
Your treatment is covered under your medical benefit, whoever caused the collision. Assistance arranges your evacuation and, if your condition requires it, your repatriation. If the injury leaves lasting effects, the disability lump sum can apply.
No. AxeoSport is not cancellation insurance. Your entry, lift pass and accommodation are not refunded. The policy protects you personally after a bodily injury, in training as well as in racing.
No. Individual accident insurance is for all skiers, amateurs included, just like the Homerun itself. Simply add the Competition option to be covered on race day and at other official events during the season.
