The GoPro Mountain Games, a project of the Vail Valley Foundation, offer the best athletes in the climbing, kayaking, cycling, multi-sport, trail running and fly fishing sports a chance to exhibit their athletic abilities and compete in one of the most revered mountain towns in Colorado that is ‘like nothing on Earth™’. Not just about the sports, the event includes other entertainment such as a photography competition, film festival, canine competition, live music, chances to demo gear and more.
“Partnering with the GoPro Mountain Games is a fantastic opportunity for Vasque to connect with athletes and spectators who love the mountain lifestyle and understand the enjoyment of being on the trail and in the great outdoors,” states Julie Quinn, Marketing Manager of Vasque. “It is exciting to be the exclusive footwear partner for such an iconic outdoor event.”
Vasque’s spring 2014 collection, which will be worn by many GoPro Mountain Games staff, is all about performance. Whether it’s hiking in rocky conditions or scrambling alongside the river, Vasque’s new Elemental Collection offers footwear that is environment specific and performs exceedingly well in the terrain for which it was designed. In addition to the Elemental Collection, Vasque will also have its newest, technologically advanced Ultra SST trail runner on hand at the event. The Ultra SST is completely conformable to the trail and a runner’s foot making it the perfect shoe for competing in the Vasque 10K Spring Run-Off at the Games.
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Vasque to the GoPro Mountain Games family as the official footwear partner,” explained Michael Imhof, Senior Vice President of Sales and Operations for the Vail Valley Foundation. “No pun intended, but Vasque represents a perfect fit with the GoPro Mountain Games as they have created the most innovative and rugged boots and shoes made for hiking, trail running and backpacking.”
