Hinton will also maintain his current role as the global director of sales for Pacific Outdoor Equipment. Hinton’s resume also includes sales and retail experience at The Orvis Company and Tahoe’s Homewood Ski Area.

“I’ve been friends with the Flylow guys for years and it’s great to finally be able to work with them,” Hinton says. “I’m looking forward to growing the brand and giving the Flylow sales reps and stores the support they need.”

Previously, Flylow co-founder and president Dan Abrams held the position of national sales manager. “Hiring Micah will help me focus on brand development and design,” Abrams said. “We’re really happy to have Micah on board. He brings a lot of experience and credibility in the ski and outdoor industry.”

Joe Denne has been hired as the new Western Great Lakes sales rep. Denne has worked in the outdoor and ski industry for 27 years. He worked for many years with Adidas and Puma, and in addition to Flylow, he currently reps brands Canada Goose and Tasc Performance in the Midwest. Denne is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

“Joe brings a tremendous amount of experience and passion to the Flylow team,” says Hinton. “We are excited to grow our business with him. You can expect big things to come.”
