Lifts are convenient but they rob skiers of the greatest pleasure that skiing can give, and that is to travel through the wide wintry country, to follow the lure of the peaks that in the distance touch the horizon and to be alone for a few days or even hours in clear, mysterious serene surroundings.
Can you imagine a life that makes you ache inside because you want it so much, a life for which you long? Heli Skiing takes you to the height of your pleasure threshold and doesn’t let go. It can take you to the next level of paradise. Varied terrain is just a quick helicopter ride away, and it can only be reached during a mind-blowing expedition.

By doing so, the AS Rome was founded. The team of the club is often called “the Giallorossi” (The Yellow-reds) due to the colours of the club and strip.
The club is playing in the A-league, which is the best league for Italian professional football. The only time that they’ve ever has to play in B-league was in 1951, but in 1952 they went straight back up to the A-league. In this league the club managed to win the championship 3 times (1942, 1983 and 2001) and have managed to be runner up at least ten times. Since 2006 they managed to win this position 3 times in a row.
An example of a famous player of the current team is the striker Francesco Totti, but there have also been some very well known people playing for the team in years gone by. One of them was the ancient director of the German national team, Rudi Völler.
