(Sep. 18, 2023) — In partnership with Outdoor Industry Association and Outdoor Alliance, The Conservation Alliance (TCA), a coalition of businesses invested in protecting wild places and outdoor spaces, is organizing a six-figure ad buy targeting lawmakers in the nation’s capital, as well as key states such as Colorado and Nevada, to mobilize support for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Public Lands Rule.

The goal of the campaign is to elevate the voices of the outdoor and adjacent industries to ensure that the Biden Administration and BLM finalize the Public Lands Rule. The BLM developed the Public Lands Rule to bring much-needed balance to how it manages 245 million acres of public lands — more than any other land management agency. These public lands are home to world-class outdoor recreation opportunities, invaluable cultural resources, critical habitat, and are crucial to combating climate change.  Despite their incredible value, the majority of these treasured lands have been left unprotected. The proposed BLM Public Lands Rule is an opportunity to ensure that the BLM prioritizes a management framework that promotes conservation and human-powered recreation amongst its other core uses.

The buy is the largest in TCA history. The ad, We Are Rec Nation, highlights the 170 million Americans that visit public lands annually, and the $862 billion dollar economic impact the outdoor industry has on our economy each year. It calls on President Biden and the BLM to conserve more of our public lands.

“The time has come to put conservation and recreation on an equal playing field with other uses on our Public Lands,” says Shoren Brown, Vice President of Public Affairs at The Conservation Alliance. “This rule is good for folks who like to get outdoors, it’s good for our environment, and it’s good for business. That is why we are taking our message to DC this week, with more than 30 business leaders from across the county, to send a clear message to President Biden that it’s time to finalize the BLM Public Lands Rule.”

Wake Forest, N.C. (September 18, 2023) – New running sock brand Jogology is available now exclusively at Run specialty retailers throughout the U.S. Jogology founders Tanya and Bert Pictor and Luke Rowe created the brand to provide a high quality product as well as grow the running community in meaningful ways.

Over the coming weeks, Jogology will debut in more than 60 retail doors across the U.S., with an initial focus on the South East. “ With the utmost commitment to run specialty, the team has an approach of under-promising and over-delivering when it comes to inventory availability.  We will be rolling out our presence as we are comfortable with our inventory levels and the ability to supply our customers,” says Rowe.

Jogology socks are engineered for supreme running comfort, resembling the construction of running shoes by securing the heel and midfoot while allowing flexible toe movement. These socks boast a second-skin fit, featuring arch support massage bands to reduce excess fabric and create moisture management between the foot and shoe.  A soft knit ankle rib band minimizes pressure marks, and a protective area covers the large toe for added comfort. Crafted using 200 needle machines and sustainable, recycled re-driTM yarn, these socks offer durability and softness. Mesh panels enhance aeration, and anatomical shaping ensures a proper fit for each foot. With three cushion levels (low, medium, and high) catering to runner preferences, Jogology socks retail for $16 MSRP.

Low Cushion – These socks fit like a second skin and feature a flat knit coverage on the big toes for added protection.

Medium Cushion – With a lush cushioned heel and toe, these socks have no cushioning around the midfoot area, plus a unique cushion coverage on big toes for added protection.

High Cushion – Feature a luxurious cushioned sole and these socks have a cushioned arch support band for additional comfort and a unique cushion coverage on the big toes for added protection.

Jogology places great importance on embracing the chance to run and discover the world. With a strong commitment to sustainability, Jogology aims to function as an environmentally responsible enterprise, making eco-conscious decisions across all facets of its operations. Key sustainability initiatives encompass the utilization of advanced yarn crafted from reclaimed materials and sustainably sourced wood pulp, the integration of recycled polyamides for weaving and design, the adoption of packaging crafted from recycled paper sourced from post-consumer waste, and a deliberate avoidance of plastic in packaging, except for white products to maintain the pristine appearance of white socks.

Jogology is dedicated to prioritizing the interests and growth of their valued retail partners. This unwavering commitment underscores the company’s ethos, where fostering strong and enduring partnerships is at the core of their business strategy. It reflects a shared vision for prosperity, where both Jogology and its partner retailers thrive in unison, creating a symbiotic relationship that drives the brand’s continuous growth and success.

Park City, Utah, Sept 18, 2023 – The Rossignol Group, a world leader in mountain sports equipment, is pleased to announce the following promotions and new additions to the Rossignol Nordic division: 

Jeff Courter, previous Nordic category manager for North America, has been promoted to Global Technical Product Manager for the Nordic division. In this new role, Courter will be based from the Group’s global headquarters in St-Jean-de-Moirans, France and participate in the global development of Rossignol’s Nordic collections as well as emerging and adjacent new categories for the Group. With over two decades of experience across Nordic, Running, and Outdoor categories, Courter brings vast experience in terms of product development and commercial viability across global markets.

Replacing Courter as the Nordic category manager for North America will be Evan Pengelly. Pengelly began his journey with the Rossignol brand in 2006, serving as both a tech rep and a competitive Nordic athlete. Evan went on to become US Nordic Race Manager from 2015-2019, and again from 2021 until August 1^st of this year when he officially assumed his new role as the commercial and category lead for the North American market.

A new addition to the Group, Foss Kerker has been hired in the joint role of Nordic Race/Product Coordinator for the US market and will be based in Park City, Utah. Kerker grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota where he raced with the Loppet Nordic Racing Team. He then went to race collegiately at Colby College and trained with the BSF program in Bozeman, Montana.

In Canada, Etienne Letondeur will continue in his role as Nordic Race Manager after beginning with the Group in June of last year. Born and raised in France, Letonduer has been immersed in Nordic skiing for as long as he’s been able to walk. After relocating to Whistler, British Columbia in 2012, Etienne began coaching biathlon, and currently still serves as the head coach for the Canadian Biathlon Training Center at the Whistler Olympic Park.

Also continuing in his support for the brand and Nordic category in Canada is Jacques Vincent. An almost 30-year veteran of the Group, Vincent has been instrumental in growing the Nordic business throughout his tenure with his involvement in Nordic competition, regional and global product development, and finally driving strategic commercial growth as Nordic sales manager in Canada. As Vincent continues his transition into “retirement” he will consult and support both commercial and category leads, Denis Leclaire, WSE Sales Director, Canada, and Pengelly, on a seasonal basis.

GROUP ROSSIGNOL: The Rossignol Group, headed by Vincent Wauters, manufactures and markets a broad range of mountain sports and outdoor equipment and apparel. The Group and its brands provide a continuous, year-round experience accompanying consumers in every moment of sporting effort and leisure, from elite-level athletes to amateurs, from the mountains to the city. The Group’s global headquarters is located in the French Alps near Grenoble with five different industrial sites across western Europe (Sallanches, Nevers, Saint Etienne de Saint Geoirs, Artès, Montebelluna) and a U.S. headquarters in Park City, Utah. The Group houses a strong portfolio of complementary brands: Rossignol – the iconic mountain sports and lifestyle brand including Alpine, Nordic, and Snowboard, Bike, Apparel and Footwear categories; Dynastar – the specialist ski brand; Lange – the iconic specialist ski boot brand; Look – the long-standing premium manufacturer of ski bindings; Risport – the reference for ice-skating; Kerma – specialized in ski poles and technical equipment; and Dale of Norway, an iconic Norwegian brand known for its high-quality wool-based knitwear. Each has built their own unique identity and draws their inspiration from the mountains. Rossignol is majority owned by Nordic Private Equity fund Altor since 2013.

SALT LAKE CITY (Sept. 14, 2023) — PHANTOM Glide, the permanent, single-application base treatment for skis and snowboards, has expanded its sales team to include national sales and tech rep, Justin Greenbaum. Greenbaum, who brings both sales and tuning experience to the team, will focus on expanding PHANTOM Glide into new markets and growing partnerships across the ski and snowboard industry.

PHANTOM Glide is a patent-pending polymer technology that uses microscopic short-chain compounds to penetrate and diffuse into the unstructured sections of ski and snowboard bases. After just one application, PHANTOM Glide provides increased glide for the lifetime of the ski and possesses no environmental harm.

“Ski resorts everywhere have been waking up to the fact that traditional fluorinated wax has been adding untold amounts of forever chemicals to precious watersheds for decades and there is a huge appetite for a better way to do things,” says Shaun Spacht, product and sales manager at PHANTOM Glide. “PHANTOM Glide provides that way forward with regards to sustainability and ease-of-use and we’re seeing consumers embrace the change.”

Currently, PHANTOM Glide base treatment is sold at over 150 locations worldwide, including dealers in Korea, Japan, Australia and New Zealand in addition to North America. PHANTOM Glide has also strengthened its distributor relationships in Europe by working with ET-Marketing, Ellis Brigham, Roxee, Ultimate Nordic, and Outback97 to ensure top tier service and product availability throughout the region. PHANTOM Glide’s popularity has grown with both individual consumers and ski areas that are using the treatment more widely on large fleets of rental skis. For instance, Aspen Skiing Company has partnered with PHANTOM Glide since 2018 to use the treatment on its high-end rental fleet of skis as part of the company’s commitment to removing forever chemicals from the local Roaring Fork River watershed.

“We’ve seen a groundswell of momentum for the PHANTOM Glide brand, which we always knew was possible given the unique and revolutionary product that it is,” says Spacht. “To capitalize on that momentum, we’ve invested in the PHANTOM Glide sales team by bringing on Justin so that we can expand distribution and bring even more consumers along with us on our journey towards better performing and more sustainable ski and snowboard bases.”

About PHANTOM Glide: 

Developed by a team of expert chemists and material science engineers, PHANTOM Glide’s patent-pending formula creates a hydrophobic environment that offers three undeniable benefits. First, unlike topical wax, PHANTOM Glide is only applied once and permanently alters the chemistry of ski and board bases to improve baseline glide for the life of the product. Second, PHANTOM Glide offers consistently fast on-snow gliding performance across a broad range of conditions and temperatures. Third, and most importantly, PHANTOM Glide is made up of non-reactive chemical functional groups that are both inert to the environment and safe to those applying it.

PORTLAND, Ore. (Sept. 13, 2023) – Today, Solarcore^® officially launches as a standalone materials technology brand, leveraging the thermal properties of NASA-licensed Aerogel, the world’s lowest thermally conductive solid, to revolutionize insulation for a multitude of applications – from structures and packaging to cold weather apparel and footwear. By combining cutting-edge technology with innovative design, Solarcore sets new benchmarks for thermal efficiency, along with being durable, versatile and applicable across various product categories.

“The early success of Solarcore’s applications, from outdoor apparel to military infrastructure, is just the beginning,” said Michael Markesbery, co-founder and CEO at Oros Labs, parent company of Solarcore. “We believe the future of insulation lies in harnessing the potential of innovative materials that have already proven their efficacy in the most challenging environments, such as space. The integration of NASA-inspired Aerogel into Solarcore material’s DNA is a testament to our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in thermal solutions.”

“With the launch of Solarcore, we’re excited to unveil a brand built around the vision of transforming the insulation industry.” added Rithvik Venna, co-founder and COO at Oros Labs, parent company of Solarcore.

Solarcore’s initial application within its sibling brand, Oros apparel, proved its value on the consumer market as a world class insulation. Oros successfully applied Solarcore insulation technology to key thermal zones in cold weather apparel. This body-mapping allowed Oros to optimize its unique thermal advantages and retain its ground-breaking warming properties, while also increasing mobility and performance.

Solarcore will continue market expansion through key strategic partnerships with the U.S. Department of Defense and renowned consumer footwear brands, such as Merrell and L.L. Bean, showcasing the advantages of its technology across government and consumer industries. Examples of those partnerships include:

• In collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense, Solarcore is set to transform the Army’s cold weather tactical shelters, offering enhanced heat retention, reduced weight, and improved efficiencies in transportation and setup. With the Defense Department investing billions annually in heating and cooling tactical shelters, the adoption of Solarcore presents significant cost-saving opportunities, operational and carbon footprint benefits.
• In the consumer sector, Solarcore partnered with Merrell to insulate the footwear brand’s MTL Thermo Rogue 4 Boot, which won an ISPO Award in 2022. The boot was recognized for incorporating Sc_Foam, which maintains excellent conductive thermal properties even under compression, while offering a lightweight, high-performance solution for cold weather. Solarcore will continue to prioritize the expansion of partnerships with footwear, apparel, and accessory brands that recognize the remarkable advantages of the Solarcore ‘More Warmth. Less Bulk’ promise.

Additionally, Solarcore has recruited an incredible team of advisors, including Col. John Burger, former Chief of the Joint Cyber Center (USCENTCOM); Bill Frank, Partner at NCT Ventures; David Schwab, Executive Vice President at Octagon; and Jim Ryan, Former Chairman & CEO of WW Grainger.
