CEO & Founder

Bergur Benediktsson

Lost the front wheel doing a wheelie when I was 8, that didn’t end well. I am a snowboarder, rock climber, adventurer, beer drinker, beard-grower and M.Sc Mechatronics.

I have repaired cars, designed sewage cleaning stations for cleaning people’s shit, food industry machines for feeding the world and leisure boats for the filthy rich people.

All mountain in the backcountry, hardtail for the pub.
