The Original Extreme Sport - the history of STIHL TIMBERSPORTS®

Wood chopping as a pastime and test of strength has been practiced in many countries over the years, however, the exact origin of modern logger sports is unclear. One version is said to have started in Tasmania in 1870. Since then, the sport has evolved, and in 1985 the STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® Series was launched in the USA. Now TIMBERSPORTS® is an established worldwide sports series, producing true competitive logging legends! Watch our brand-new video to discover the history of TIMBERSPORTS®!
