The collaboration LaCroix & Martin Berger

The ski season : precision and thrills

With each return of winter, the mountains become a place of momentum, light, and silence once again. The first snowfall reshapes the landscape, lines stretch across immaculate slopes, and skiing returns to its most essential form: a dialogue between movement and matter.

It was in this spirit that the collaboration between LACROIX and Martin Berger, artistic director of Ateliers Berger, was born. An encounter where performance meets sculpture, and where the technical object becomes a work in motion.

The ski season is not just a time for sports; it is also a time for aesthetic experiences. The low light on the snow, the muffled crunch underfoot, the fluidity of a perfectly executed turn every detail contributes to a quest for balance and purity.

LACROIX has always designed skis to be sculpted to fit the mountain. The lines are taut, the finishes exceptional, the performance masterful. Here, power is never raw: it is elegant, silent, and precise. Innovation does not break with heritage; it extends it.

It is this demanding vision that has found a natural echo in the artistic universe of Martin Berger.

A meeting between art and snowboarding

With the limited edition Ultimate Martin Berger, LACROIX has reached a new milestone : skiing as a form of artistic expression.

For many years, Martin Berger has been developing work focused on light, movement, and decorative materials. His approach explores how surfaces capture and reflect energy. At Ateliers Berger, this research translates into an artistic direction based on high standards, precision of movement, and the pursuit of timeless aesthetics.

In this collaboration, skiing becomes the medium for a unique visual language. The graphics, texture, and composition interact with the technicality of the object. It is no longer just a skiing instrument, but a work designed to accompany the movement of the body in the landscape.

The gesture as signature

This project fully embodies the philosophy of Ateliers Berger : bringing together craftsmanship and modernity, technique and sensitivity.

Produced in a very limited series, this edition celebrates the meeting of two exceptional areas of expertise. On one side, LACROIX's technological mastery; on the other, Martin Berger's artistic vision. Together, they have created a ski that does more than just leave tracks in the snow it asserts an identity, an intention.

At this time of year, as the peaks light up and the resorts come back to life, this collaboration reminds us that skiing can be more than just a sport : it is a medium for expression, a space for creativity.

Through Ultimate Martin Berger, the mountain becomes a canvas, skiing becomes an artistic gesture, and winter asserts itself as an aesthetic manifesto.
