I've been on Atomic skis since I was five -- they're the best! Atomic has been very good to me. As early as age 10, they gave me special deals and the occasional free ski. I am now a fully sponsored athlete and could not afford to race if I had to buy gear as well. Jake Strassburger is awesome--he makes sure I have the right gear, on time, every year. Thanks guys!
I've been in POC gear for two years. The lightest helmet I've worn, plus protective gear and goggles designed to meet all my racing needs. Thanks for the help.
Mountain Gear provides all the insulation I need for those ultra cold Canadian downhills in December. Thanks to Paul Fish for his generous support and John Schwartz for his encouragement and service.
You guys gave the fastest wax for five years – right up until I made the team. Thanks for always handing me the latest mix and staying on the cutting edge of speed. I loved how the product ran in all conditions. Fast and easy to use!
Peter Faletto has given me free physical training since I was nine years old. He's tough but always keeps it fun. That's why I'm a gym rat today. Thanks for the crazy workouts!
Ex U.S. Ski Team racer and pro skier Cory Murdock knows how to capture the action. He travels with me to the big races and gives me all my photos for free. But his best donation has been his friendship and the perspective from his own ski racing career.
Thor Seaborg is a recovering FIS racer who makes the best pizza around. How does a Scandanavian do that? Thor feeds me for free, giving me the momentum for long downhills!
Pat and George Frazier donated posters and personalized cards for me to thank donors. These are so cool and everyone really likes them. Thanks guys!
The pioneers of vibration plates for strength training and recovery. I've been on these plates for 7 years. This year they gave me my own, custom built, travel plate. I love it!
Don Walde has been doing my boot fitting and alignment for 10 years. He also works at Heater Craft which manufacturers great "Made in the USA" boot dryers. Give them a try!
My cousin Denise created this great website and our blogs this year. She's been really helpful as she walked us through the process and donated her company's time. Get out of Houston and move up here to the mountains so we can see you more often!
