Many thanks to all my partners!
An athlete doesn't get on the international scene without the help of his sponsors.To all the athlete supporters, no matter your way of supporting an athlete, thank you! Without you, who knows where amateur sport athletes would be today. In the athletes case, it's hard to have a normal life with all the training, competitions and studying throughout the years. It's in these situations, in this choice of lifestyle that we need your support. This page is dedicated to my personal sponsors and I have added links to their respective websites so you can learn more about what they offer!
A lot of travel is involved for training camps, school or even just a social night. When you live in an apartment and that you aren't necessarily 5 minutes by foot from the training center, a car isn't a luxury! I have the honor and the luck to get around for my biathlon activities, conferences and scholar events with my very own Honda Element lent by the Honda Lallier Ste-Foy dealership.
GEDCO
(Geophysical Exploration and Development Corporation) is a leading industry in the development, the support and the application of geophysical software. This partnership is particular in the way that, where I, as an athlete, work hard and persist in attaining my goals in my quest for excellence; the highly qualified GEDCO family are equally known for their hard work and specialties in the geophysical exploration domain, as they are constantly in the quest of finding target zones for their clients. In other words, and in both cases, we have to keep our eye on the target to be successful!
In the wonderful world of biathlon, where skiing is an important factor in both racing and training; it's manditory to have good skis! This company has supported me from the get go as I started biathlon on the civilian circuit, they have the gear that suits me best and their a French company! You guessed it, I'm talking about the Rossi bombs!
Winter is a rugged season because of it's cool temperatures, snow falls etc. The refraction of the sunlight off the snow is extremely dangerous for eyesight. Thats why it's important to be equiped with good shades to protect these eyes! Offering a wide variaty of sun glasses, Adidas Eyewear guaranties optimal protection quality for your eyes with their products! Be sure to scope ou the online catalogue of the new arrivals and the Classics section: Adidas Classics!
As I said earlier, skiing in biathon is rather important... but you get anywhere fast without a good set of poles! I'v been around the pole industry a bit, my choice stopped on the Exel poles. Their light, solid and durable... and damn they look good!
Good equipment is important, but sometimes, thats not what will get you around for camps and competitions. Thats why monetary support is also important and helps us get around more easily. This makes a good difference between the athlete that stays home most the time and the one that can go to training camps and competitions to improve his skills!
A good portion of the training is done by running... that leaves out all the traedmill tests we do! Once again, thats why it's important to have a good paire of running shoes! The Brooks company has come out the shadows and offers all the types of shoes you need! As I like to say: Ain't nothin like a good paire of kicks! |
