An Exclusive Luge, Limited to 10 Pieces Worldwide
On February 2, 2011, Pierre Keller, Director of the Lausanne University of Art and Design, and Jean-Claude Biver, CEO of Hublot, jointly announced the creation of the "HUBLOT LUGE" (a small wooden sled), a unique and authentic sports item.
Hublot has previously released exclusive sports goods through collaborations with Swiss companies, including the "HUBLOT ALL BLACK SKI" (2008) with ski brand Zai, and the "HUBLOT ALL BLACK BIKE" (2009) with high-technology bicycle manufacturer BMC. This marks the third such release.
Developed in cooperation with Graf, a Swiss sled maker with advanced technical expertise, this wooden sled embodies Hublot's concept of "The Art of Fusion" (the fusion of different materials and ideas), offering not only a distinctive design but also exceptional performance.
The "HUBLOT LUGE," limited to 10 pieces worldwide, will be exhibited at the Alpine World Ski Championships, where Hublot serves as the official timekeeper. Hublot ambassadors Bode Miller and Maria Riesch are confirmed to participate in test runs. We eagerly anticipate witnessing their performance.
