October 9, 2023 By Admin Leave a Comment

Chris Oggerino

The experience cemented his love of the sport and provided early opportunities to help others with their skiing. Prior to his adult career in software technology Chris raced NCAA. 17 years ago, Chris began a side career teaching skiing at both Sky Tavern and Mt. Rose where he is currently the Trainer of Instructors.

Biste Method Going to WWMG 2020!

December 2, 2019 By Admin Leave a Comment

November 2019 – Biste Technologies announces that they are taking the Biste Method of teaching to the highest non-professional level by representing the United States at the Winter World Masters Games! Winter World Masters Games are just like the Winter Olympics with opening and closing ceremonies and all the Winter Olympic events but they don’t happen as frequently. The elephant in the room, the competitors are 30yrs and older. That means we have a whole lot of experience, so don’t think for a New York minute these games aren’t competitive. WWMG 2020 is the highest level of competition available for non-professional winter athletes. Competitors include those who have maintained high levels of fitness and skill in their respective sports beyond the age of 30. These athletes compete as representatives for 55 countries. Not only do these athletes compete at the highest non-professional levels, they will also be demonstrating the highest levels of integrity and professionalism in the sports they have represented their entire lifetime.

Kris Buttenberg is a fabulous ski instructor. He is friendly and professional, and excellent at helping me progress quickly with fun and challenging lesson plans. He built a wonderful “Biste,” an inclined treadmill that makes it possible to ski and learn faster, even during the off season. I h… Read more

I have been skiing for four years, but have not been very confident. I signed up for lessons with Kris to address skill, control, and safe form. I have only had one lesson so far and I can’t believe the improvement! I already feel like I have a great deal more control on the slopes. Plus, I’m no… Read more

Kris Buttenberg, at Biste Technologies, has invented a truly one-of-a-kind experience in South Reno. It’s as close to skiing as you can get in the heat of a Nevada summer and we are working with him to provide access to SBA athletes over the summer. The machine demands ankle flexion and the activa… Read more

We tried out this endless ski slope a few weeks ago and it was fantastic. It was the next best thing to being on snow and in one session I felt like I worked out this weird right leg under edging thing I could not put my finger on all winter. ‘Their’ alpine race watches and instructs, it’s very int… Read more

If anyone is looking to improve their skiing skills (or just learn to ski!), I highly recommend reaching out to Kris Buttenberg at Biste Technologies, LLC in Reno! Training on the Biste system was invaluable to Emma, not only as she worked to return to snow from her knee injury, but also to really g… Read more

The classes helped immensely!! Kellen and the twins were as good as other kids who had been skiing many more days before them this year, so it was fantastic that they could just dive right in and be at the same level. Exactly what I wanted.

So so Happy! I’m getting it! Spent time going down Kit Carson yesterday and I could actually feel the skills, and could go back and forth many many times over(not just three!) I was swooshing and it felt natural, secondary! My hubby even said I finally looked relaxed while skiing correctly! Brian is… Read more

My wife and I saw the article on Biste in the RGJ. We had plateaued in our skiing ability — basically being stuck at the “Advanced-minus” level for the last several years. We were ready and eager to take it to the next level. We had tried “on the mountain” lessons but were frustrated that in a one-h… Read more
