ABOUT US

SINCE 1998

Mana Original was established in 1998 with the purpose of making summer ski jumping available to all ski jumping clubs. Our main product at that time was
a ceramic in-run track, which became a very popular product worldwide. Even today, it is still installed and used on some ski jumping hills.

Ever since then, we have kept busy developing our own range of products and services, expanding our team, and thinking about the future of ski jumping and other sports. We have upgraded our original product many times and even went a step further and developed its big brother: the ice ceramic in-run track. This updated sibling has quickly become our most important product — all our auxiliary systems and a range of services we offer our clients today have been built around it. Through the years, we have been keeping a close eye on the ever-changing and developing needs of ski jumping facilities, and we are currently the only company that can, in cooperation with our partners, offer every imaginable ski jumping hill system. Our strive towards constant improvements and the expansion of our products and services has led to the birth of our own brand TopSpeed®. TopSpeed® services and systems include the most advanced technological solutions for ski jumps, covering the entire range of the in-run area as well as a wide range of landing area products.

We leave no questions unanswered
and no problem unsolved!
Our international team of experts will leave no questions unanswered and no problem unsolved. If you want a true professional team working on your sports centre, give us a call.
