According to Mike Doble ASC’s National Sales Manager; “the Alpina product just spoke for itself when we made the suggestion’…and it certainly goes a long way when the Alpina/Rottefella system is worn by the likes of Thomas Alsgaard and Ole Einar Bjoerndalen, both Olympic Gold Medalists”…”Naturally we are thrilled that the “red boot” will be seen on many of Canada’s finest skiers”.

We look forward to a long-term relationship with the team and wish all the members success in the coming season.

Making the switch are;

Milaine Theriault Team 2006
Dave Nighbor Team 2010
Sean Crooks Team 2010
Perianne Jones Team 2014
Chris Butler Team 2014

The first major Canadian races of the season were at Silver Star Resort in British Columbia over the weekend and Alpina/Rottefella skiers enjoyed some positive results against the top Canadian skiers, including Beckie Scott.
