Davide Cerato will play a major role in skiing and snowboarding events at the upcoming Olympics, but he won’t be competing. The Italian snowmaking expert is responsible for perfecting several of the courses that will feature in the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Games, and he takes his job seriously.
“It’s the most important race of their life,” Cerato said. “Our duty is to give them the best, to deliver the best courses where they can perform their best after training so hard.” Cerato oversees operations at venues where new snowmaking systems were installed, including in Bormio for Alpine ski racing and ski mountaineering, and in Livigno for freestyle skiing and snowboarding events.
