Recreation Outfitters Inc., the Vancouver BC-based distributor of Movement Skis, hired Jim Angeles as Rocky Mountain Sales Representative for Movement. Angeles comes to Movement having spent 7 years as a sales associate with Salomon Sports in Colorado. He also has over 6 years of combined retail experience, most recently with Colorado Ski & Golf, and a knack for product design, with experience working on design projects for Sony, Philips and Rubbermaid.

“We’re stoked to welcome Jim to Movement. His passion for the business of our industry is as deep as his passion for the sport,” said James Retty, Director of Sales for ROI. “He has a unique and comprehensive understanding of the state of the industry and the current challenges facing both the retailers and suppliers.”

From his central office in Denver, Angeles will cover the retail regions of Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Wyoming. He will also represent Colltex Skins – the natural fiber ski skin company from Switzerland.

“A key arrow in the Movement quiver, Jim knows the business and is particularly committed to exceptionally high levels of service and training for his accounts,” added Retty.
