Barbara Rauscher
Since 2005 Barbara is the girl for (nearly) everything. Top on the boat, always funny and helpfully. Normally she is the one to mary, but - sad for all men: she is already in good hands...
Hobby and job in winter:
Skiing...
Martin Leitinger
Trained carpenter and heartbreaker, ski instructor, rafting guide since 2003, all round sporting talent, particularly talented at "karaoke" - he might be a singer yet...!
Matthew Burke
The baby in our team - not because he is the youngest but he is the latest addition. First experiences with us in 2004 and since 2005 an important figure.
Just married - congratulations and all the best!!
Second string to his bow - he is a talented musician.
Currently producing his first CD.
Marco Greuter
Coming right back from the examination for the boat guide but is very experienced in wild water. Uses every free minute with the rodeo boat, which could have more room.
Last winter he made the girls crazy at skiing..
We wish you good luck with your first season!
Arnie Landauer
Could also be a body builder. He likes to show off his muscles - out and about in a T-shirt whatever the weather. Girls love him. He's also boss of the repairs department. In that respect, we hope that he doesn't have much to do this year.
Rudi Reinold
Was a cornerstone in Motion for a long time. Unfortunately he has changed his job and is now an official bike collector. Anything to do with muscle powered motion on two wheels, then just call him. Quite recently discovered a love of archery.
Reinhard Hodny
The flying waiter of Lofer- his classes are just as fast as he is in the Bistro, a cosy little place for dinner.
He is one of the oldest motion guides and has an outstanding dry humour and charm. Specialist in canyoning..
Gini Stangassinger
Bavarian farmer's whirlwind. As a trained nurse, she knows how to get her own way and is one of our most reliable people when the Motion Centre is buzzing..
Christoph Hölzl
Our computer freak, information and network specialist. Was a born rafter and has not had enough yet!
His motto: The waters of a raging torrent touch not only your skin but also your soul.
"Anton"
The rescue dog in any event
Patrice Kaiser
Student of French descent. His combination of charm makes him a winner particularly with the ladies. Papa taught him how to canoe and that helps him wind down after the daily stress of being a student (partying). He is with us in the centre from July.
Andi Millinger
He is working his way up in the Motion team. He spends the whole year doing sport and is particularly at home in the mountains. At the moment he is preparing for training as a mountain guider.
