Start Your Own Learning Center

Use our proven business model

Use our business model and start your own small business, or support the needs of a team, training facility or academy.  The Snow Biste and Biste Method are available for sale and license.  Use your simulator to offer one on one personalized real-time coaching, refine the skills of your race team or develop your own personal skills using a tool that teaches you 5X faster than snow alone.

Snow Biste Simulators can vary in size and feature to meet your specific winter sport needs and budget.  Our simulators can be used to train Alpine and Nordic Skiing and Snowboarding!!!  Let’s design one for YOU!

The foot print of a Snow Biste can range from 7’6” wide x 9’ long to 24’ wide x 36’ long.  Once you decide on the foot print size of the machine you then add in the features important to your client base.  For example, do you want to support a client base with special challenges in order to accommodate getting those clients on the machine easily, or are you an alpine ski team solely working on proper functional movements to optimize your snow program?  We’ll help you decide what’s right for you and the training facility you want to create while saving you money in unnecessary features.

Snow Biste Methodology and Small Business Support

Starting a new business is no small task. Our direct support for your new business is imperative to keeping you doing what you do best and not doing what we already do for our other locations.  Why re-invent the wheel when you can:

  1. Get our advertising, social media and magazines ad verbiage,
  2. Get our artwork for those media posts, ads etc,
  3. Get support for your staff in training or emergency questions about machine issues.
  4. We offer staff training and annual machine testing to keep you up and running.
  5. If parts wear out, we personally vet service operators in your area to give you support, and
  6. When you need new parts, we can order them for you.  We’ll save you time, money and frustrations during your startup process.

The most common question we get is, “How do I start my business?”  As a sounding board we help you to make the right decision to get your business up, running and successful as quickly as possible.  We measure our success by your success.  We offer startup question support for two years after you acquire our license.

Maintenance Support Contract

Sign-up for our support and maintenance contract and rest assure your business will be up and running.  Enjoy discount pricing on maintenance service and technical support.  We’ll teach you to become self-sufficient in managing normal wear are tear on your equipment so that you become the expert and no longer need our service expense.  By then your business will be established, and “we” will be successful.

Methodology Licensing

When you license our teaching methodology, we offer annual staff training and document updates real time through our secure document resource center.  We have a direct phone number to a real person for all your questions when you license our methodology.  Based on USSA teaching terminology our learning center process is easily learned and transferable to other coaches and academies.

If you are an academy or are just purchasing your own machine for personal use, then you may not need our proven teaching methodology.  You may want to create your own and that’s fine too, we just know the Biste Methodology works and have the metrics to prove it.  The Biste Methodology took 4 years to create and has several success stories.  Why re-create the process when we already have one?  We supply train the trainer seminars annually for your coaches/staff to get you going forward faster.

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

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

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

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

Working with Kris on the ski desk was by far the best ski learning experience I’ve had. He obviously really knows his stuff and is able to communicate it well. Skiing on the deck gave me much more intense practice and with him right there watching, he could see exactly what I was doing when and coul… Read more

Kris, I truly appreciated having the fastest skier on the hill take time out to assist me with learning how to prepare for the race. I’m very optimistic that we’ll continue to clear up the items we’ve been working on and I’ll be quite a bit faster racing. Best Regards,

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
