Maggie Voisin, Teal Harle and McRae Williams are featured in Teton Gravity Research’s ski film “Pressure Drop”

OSLO (Sept. 16, 2025)Norrøna, the Norwegian outdoor brand regarded for its sustainably built, premium outerwear, is expanding its talented roster of brand ambassadors with the addition of Maggie Voisin, McRae Williams and Teal Harle. Together, they bring Olympic experience, X Games medals and a deep passion for the mountains, further strengthening  Norrøna’s presence in North America. All three skiers will be featured in Teton Gravity Research’s upcoming film “Pressure Drop”, which will be touring through the U.S. through November 8.

“As we continue to build brand awareness in North America, we’re thrilled to welcome Maggie, McRae, and Teal to the Norrøna family,” says Jørgen Jørgensen, leader and fourth-generation owner of Norrøna. “These athletes embody the same values that define our brand: performance, authenticity and responsibility. With their presence in TGR’s Pressure Drop, audiences across North America will get to experience their talent on the big screen and see the spirit of Norrøna brought to life.”

Hailing from Whitefish, Montana, Maggie Voisin (@maggie_voisin) is one of the most decorated U.S. women in freeskiing. A three-time Olympian and X Games medalist, she claimed silver in slopestyle at X Games Aspen in 2014, becoming the youngest skier to ever medal at the event. Voisin has since built an impressive competitive career across slopestyle and big air, and she continues to be a role model for young skiers pushing into the sport.

Utah native McRae Williams (@mcrae_williams) is an X Games gold medalist and World Champion known for his smooth, powerful style on slopestyle courses around the globe. With podiums spanning the FIS World Cup and international free-ski circuits, Williams has been a fixture of the sport for over a decade. Beyond competition, he is deeply involved in mentoring the next generation of skiers and sharing his passion for skiing and mountain life.

The final addition is two-time Olympic freeskier Teal Harle (@teal_harle). Based in Pemberton, BC, Harle earned bronze in X Games Big Air in 2022 and silver in 2023, showcasing his consistency among the world’s best. Known for his creative style and technical tricks, Harle has become a standout on the international stage.

As part of its ongoing commitment to storytelling and athlete-driven projects, Norrøna is also an official partner of Pressure Drop. The feature film highlights the talent of Voisin, Williams Harle and fellow ambassador Owen Leeper, bringing their skiing forte to audiences nationwide and demonstrating Norrøna’s dedication to supporting athletes who push the boundaries of the sport.

Norrøna will be hosting events at its U.S. stores ahead of select premieres, inviting the local communities to engage with the brand and ambassadors. Registration opens soon for the events in Boulder, Colorado on October 9, New York City on November 3 and Boston, Massachusetts on November 6.

Kahtoola Introduces MICROspikes® Ghost Footwear Traction for Hiking and Trail Running

Ultralight, durable and packable to safely navigate snowy, mountainous terrain with efficiency

For Immediate Release

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (September 16, 2025) Kahtoola, the market leader in flexible footwear traction designed to make people more capable outdoors, is excited to announce the launch of its newest innovation, the lightweight MICROspikes® Ghost. Now available on Kahtoola.com and at outdoor retailers, MICROspikes Ghost are designed to safely navigate slick, snow-covered trails quietly and efficiently for an improved outdoor experience.

Chain-free, lighter, and more packable than Kahtoola’s legendary MICROspikes® footwear traction, MICROspikes Ghost features new materials and construction designed over a multi-year testing period to create a smaller, ultralight (43% lighter) version of its predecessor.

“For years, we’ve dreamed of creating a lighter, more packable version of the original MICROspikes traction – one that provides the same reliable grip, but with significantly reduced weight and bulk,” notes Chris Bunch, Head of Research and Development for Kahtoola. “This vision set us on a multi-year journey that involved rethinking everything, from materials and construction to rigorous testing. For the past nine years, every Kahtoola team member has been instrumental in making this dream a reality.”

Built for fast packers, trail runners and thru-hikers, the high performance, durable MICROspikes Ghost offers chainless performance with minimal bulk and weight (pair size M: 6.8 oz/ 192g) to maximize valuable pack space. MICROspikes Ghost features a hard-wearing, low-profile thermoplastic polyurethane matrix with 12 aggressive spikes per foot for optimal stability, and articulating rivets that move independently to efficiently shed snow. A hybrid elastomer harness features stiffer thermoplastic rubber at the toe for secure footing and stretchy thermoplastic elastomer at the heel for a snug fit, with patented reinforced eyelets and a raised heel tab that easily slides over running and hiking shoes

“Since Kahtoola was founded nearly 26 years ago, we’ve always focused on creating lightweight, efficient solutions that enhance adventure and human potential without compromising safety or the overall experience,” said Danny Giovale, founder and owner of Kahtoola. “Every product we make is driven by our own passion for the outdoors and the desire to redefine what’s possible in backcountry travel.”

MICROspikes Ghost is available in unisex sizing XS-XL (US women’s size 5.5-11+, US men’s size 6-14) and includes a packable tote sack. MSRP $103.95.

Starting in August 2025, every pair of Kahtoola’s stretch-on traction, including MICROspikes Ghost, will be backed by a new extended 4-year warranty program as part of the brand’s commitment to build long-lasting outdoor gear for increased sustainability. Join Kahtoola’s newsletter community for the latest product news and brand stories.

Maven Debuts Industry-First Zoom Rangefinder, the RFZ.1

Built on the legacy of the RF.1, the RFZ.1 features a variable-magnification eyepiece

LANDER, Wyo. (Sept. 15, 2025) – Maven Outdoor Equipment Company, a Wyoming-based direct-to-consumer brand known for offering world-class optics at affordable prices, has expanded its premium RF series with the launch of the RFZ.1, a new laser rangefinder featuring industry-first variable magnification. Building on the proven performance of the RF.1, the RFZ.1 delivers enhanced flexibility with a 6x to 12x zoom range, making it the most versatile rangefinder in Maven’s lineup.

Designed for hunters and shooters who demand both precision and adaptability, the RFZ.1 offers the same trusted accuracy and ergonomics of the RF.1, while introducing the ability to adjust magnification to meet the demands of any ranging scenario.

“The RFZ.1 expands on the foundation we built with the RF.1, giving users the advantage of variable magnification in a compact, rugged package,” said Brendon Weaver, Co-Founder and Head of Design/Marketing for Maven. “This rangefinder is designed for those who want both the wide field of view needed for quick ranging and the detail required for precise, long-range target acquisition.”

The RFZ.1 boasts a maximum ranging distance of up to 4,500 yards. Its advanced optical system and 6x–12x zoom give users flexibility in diverse field conditions, and a more precise one-tenth yard increment readout in the display. Like the RF.1, the RFZ.1 features angle compensation, five brightness settings, selectable reticles, and IPX7 waterproofing. The Field/Forest Function enables users to isolate small, hard-to-hit targets in open environments or to range through brush, trees, and inclement weather conditions.

At just 10.6 ounces, the RFZ.1 maintains a lightweight profile despite its variable zoom capability, ensuring ease of carry in backcountry environments.

The Maven RFZ.1 rangefinder ($595) is now available at www.mavenbuilt.com. As with all Maven products, it is built with durability in mind and backed by the company’s unconditional lifetime warranty.

“We’re thrilled to partner with HOKA, a brand that continues to redefine the future of running and hiking footwear, as this collaboration emphasizes searchability while empowering athletes to push further with performance in every step,” said Fredrik Steinwall, CEO at RECCO. “By integrating RECCO technology, Hoka joins a growing global network of industry leaders dedicated to making adventurers more searchable outdoors.”
