Weâve spent more weekends on mountain trails and ski slopes than we can even count. We are Daniel and Ĺukasz, and when we aren't writing code or polishing pixels at Rideaway, youâll likely find us somewhere between the Beskids and the Alps. Most likely, weâre arguing over the best line on a descent or where to find the best food after a full day of skiing or MTB riding.
Why we built a marketplace for sports instructors
Rideaway wasn't born in a boardroom. it started with pure frustration during our own trips. Picture this: youâre in Austria, your kid wants to learn snowboarding, and you spend an hour on German websites. Youâre making awkward calls in broken English, trying to find a Polish-speaking instructor who knows how to handle a 5-year-old on a board. It is stressful, time-consuming, and kills the vibe.
On the other hand, we see local legends at skateparks or on secret MTB trails who are incredible at what they do. They teach friends for fun or a bit of extra cash, but they are "invisible" because they don't have a website or a marketing budget. They are amazing sports instructors who just aren't on the grid.
We decided to fix that. We want booking a sports instructor to be as easy as checking the weather.
Sometimes youâve got to get a little dirty to see life from a new perspective ;)

Built by riders, for riders
Rideaway isnât just another corporate startup. We both spend our time actively on two wheels and on the slopes. Every day in the powder, every new trail, and every mountain summit has shaped who we are.
We still remember the 22-year-old who taught Daniel his first bike trick and the instructor who finally helped Ĺukasz master edge control. These were passionate people who were nearly impossible to find online. We want to make sure those hidden teachers can finally meet their students without the struggle.
Welcome to Rideaway. Letâs find some teachers and hit the trails. đď¸
