Having these athletes behind our product has done a lot to grow the brand and introduce mountainFLOW to folks around the world.”
Up-and-coming Utah skier Colby Stevenson rounds out the group of pros now serving as ambassadors for mountainFLOW.
“mountainFLOW eco-wax has come in very handy for backcountry missions and competitions with ever-changing snow conditions,” Stevenson said. “Plan ahead and wax the night before with the forecasted temperature, then bring the rub on wax for a quick fix on the spot. When I was in Pennsylvania at the Steel City Showdown when temperatures hit the 60s, and I was the only one to have the remedy.”
