How the SISIS Multislit Keeps Sweden’s Top Golf Course in Peak Condition

Visby Golf Club, located on the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea, is consistently ranked as Sweden’s number one golf course. With its spectacular coastal setting, immaculate fairways and smooth-rolling greens, it attracts golfers from across the world. But maintaining those standards under constant pressure takes experience, dedication and the right equipment.
For nearly two decades, Course Manager Petter Lindblad has been leading Visby through the unique challenges of its coastal location. “Our biggest challenges are excess water in the low points and the heavy play pressure. We need to work efficiently and quickly while maintaining high quality.”

That balance, keeping surfaces dry, healthy and consistently playable while meeting high demand, is why the SISIS Multislit has become such a valuable tool in Visby’s maintenance programme.
“The Multislit helps us keep the low points dry. It’s easy to use, quick to attach and we can aerate all 27 greens in around 2.5 hours. Best of all, players can be back on the course almost straight away, with very little disruption.”

The Multislit is a tractor-mounted deep slitting aerator built to tackle compaction, improve drainage, and encourage strong root growth, all vital when dealing with standing water in low-lying areas. By moving water away from the surface, it not only improves turf health but also keeps surfaces firmer and more playable for members and visitors alike. Its spiral tine shaft and angled tine positioning deliver deep, clean penetration with minimal surface disturbance, ensuring golfers enjoy tournament-quality conditions almost immediately after use.
Durability and serviceability are at the heart of its design. Shatterproof boron steel tines ensure long working life, while interchangeable options allow treatment to be adapted for different soil conditions.

Available in 1.2m or 1.5m working widths and with rollers fitted as standard, the Multislit delivers reliable performance even on undulating ground.
For busy clubs like Visby, where member experience and turf quality are non-negotiable, the Multislit proves its worth every day.

As Petter Lindblad sums up:
“I’ve always liked SISIS, simple, reliable, cost-effective machines that just work.”
At Visby Golf Club, that simplicity and reliability translate into healthier turf, better drainage and uninterrupted playability, keeping Sweden’s leading course at the very top.
