When Walk-EZ debuted to the snowsports industry last winter at the SIA.06 SnowSports Trade Show, their line of stress-free ski accessories were well received — once skiers of all levels tried their products, they were hooked. For the upcoming season, Walk-EZ has enlisted four elite athletes to spread the word about their product line. Picabo Street, Donna Weinbrecht, Tommy Moe and Ted Ligety will all be making appearances at tradeshows and consumer events throughout the season on behalf of Walk-EZ.
When Walk-EZ founder and President, David R. Sellers, witnessed a common slope-side sight of a woman wrestling with her ski equipment in clunky ski boots, he was inspired to create the Walk-EZ Revolutions™ and the Ski-Shuttle™. Revolutions™ ski boot attachments will transform any ski boot on the market making it easier and safer to walk in icy or snowy conditions. And, Walk-EZ Ski-Shuttle™ allows skiers to literally roll their skis and poles to the lift line. The full line of Walk-EZ products will be available to consumers this fall – Revolutions™, Kid Mini-Revs and the Ski-Shuttle™. (Note: see www.walk-ez.com for additional product information.)
“Obviously we’re thrilled to have such star-power behind our brand – it really speaks to the quality of the Walk-EZ product line. Walk-EZ products appeal to all level of skiers from kids to elite athletes such as Picabo, Donna, Tommy and Ted who spend most of the winter lugging their equipment around in their ski boots,†commented Bill McCall, Director of Promotional Events.
“When I was first introduced to Revolutions, I thought they were great but would appeal more to the average skier. But then I realized how the durable tread protects the canting at the bottom of my boots, which is very important to expert skiers. This is why Revolutions are an exceptional product for skiers of all abilities,†said Ted Ligety, Gold Medalist in Alpine Combined.
