Fischer US announces the appointment of Eli Brown to the new in-house position of Nordic Race Director.

Brown brings a variety of experiences to the Fischer team, including a coaching career that spans University of Utah, Whitman College and most recently Maine Winter Sports Center. He has experience working with top juniors, college racers, Factory Team athletes and the US Ski team.

As race director, Eli will support the Athlete Force, and Subaru Factory Team athletes. He will work with dealers and consumers as the technical voice for Fischer Cross-Country. Brown will also provide race support at all major Nordic events.

Fischer and racing have a history and future that I am excited to be a part of.” said Brown. “I am looking forward to my move to Concord and promoting Fischer skis and boots.”
