In preparation for another season of World Cup racing, Atomic Ski promoted Eduardo Guzman to International Race Director. Having spent numerous seasons on the hill for Atomic, Guzman brings veteran experience to his new position.
No stranger to the world of ski racing, ski tech and tuning, Guzman was formerly Atomics North American Race Director, where he was responsible for all aspects of Atomics Alpine Racing programs in the United States and Canada. Guzman has also been instrumental in coordinating numerous magazine ski tests, regional demos, and various athlete events.
At his new post, Guzmans responsibilities shift from national to global, as his new duties now include working with Atomics International World Cup Service Team, attending World Cup functions, and supporting Atomics athletes worldwide.
“Eddie has all of the ingredients it takes to work at this level, he adds an amazing element to our race program,” said Jack Baltz, president of Atomic USA.
In other Atomic race department news, Mark Bettencourt has also been promoted and will take charge with Atomics North American race efforts next season. In addition to his on-hill duties, Bettencourt is now responsible for all US junior FIS skiers and managing relationships with ski academies and race clubs nationwide.
