Lebanon, NH. – Known for producing innovative, high tech snow sports
products, Marker is set to enter the protective equipment category with
its new Marker Protective Snow Equipment collection.
First to
launch will be a complete range of snow sports helmets and goggles,
featuring advancements in protection technology, comfort, and styling
for men, women, and kids.
In developing completely new helmets
from the ground up, Marker has partnered with Ortema® to create an
innovative impact absorption system, providing increased protection in
the key impact zones to the head. Integrated in its in-mold and ABS
hybrid shell construction, this system is featured in the all-new Ampire
Otis helmet.
Complementing the helmets is a complete goggle
collection highlighted by several all-new frames, mirrored and polarized
spherical lenses, all with superior comfort, fit and styling.
“Our
entry into the protective equipment category will build on Marker’s
sterling reputation as a supplier of products that help skiers perform
better while helping to keep them protected. In launching this new
division, I am thrilled to have the full support and backbone of Marker
Völkl USA in Lebanon, NH,” says Mike Noonan, President of Marker Völkl
USA.
Marker will support the introduction with a team of pro
skiers, most notably having signed well-known big mountain skier Dash
Longe to ride with and endorse Marker Protective Snow Equipment
effective immediately.
Marker Protective Snow Equipment will be
officially launched at the 2013 SIA Snow Show in Denver, Colorado
January 31 through February 3, and at the SIA on-snow Demo on February 3
& 4.
