Davide Marta

Publisher/Ski instructor

Skialper editorial director and inventor of the Buyer's Guide, Davide is also the brains behind the new digital version

Davide is our editor. The Buyer’s Guide was his intuition, and over the years, he’s had a love-hate relationship with it. It’s hard work, but immensely rewarding. He’s basically grown up on skis, having started when he was just three. He’s a ski instructor from a family of ski instructors, although he’s dedicated the past few years to sister cycling magazine Alvento, his heart remains firmly here in Skialper.
