By BOLLÉ ® by Developing the Design of Its Frames, Bollé® Adds a New Touch of Style to Its Technological Benefits For close to 100 years, BOLLÉ has been providing men and women with technical eyewear that exceeds the demands of even the most active lifestyles. Our unwavering commitment to innovation means using the latest advancements in optics and the best new mate- rials to create the finest possible eyewear for both every- day wear and the precise requirements of specific sports and activities. An important aspect of this approach is working with top athletes, observing them in action and using their feedback to optimize every last detail. The 6th Sense and Breakaway are the latest examples of this unique approach. These models have lightweight, highly adjustable frames fitted with oversized lenses, providing complete protection and stunning visual acuity. The result is a sporting experience that is more instinctive, ensuring athletes achieve both excellence and a real connection with their environment. BOLLÉ’s commitment goes far beyond protection from the sun. Our inclusive approach to making sunglasses is vali- dated by today’s finer understanding of the many factors required for success at any given sport. We believe that excelling at sport at any level is tied to the profound moments of pure focus athletes feel when trying to surpass themselves, becoming one with their surroun- dings without regard to weather. In rain, wind and even under a harsh sun, BOLLÉ eyewear is the perfect acces- sory to feel the full intensity of the moment. To fully realize the many rewards of outdoor sports, every motion must be perfectly aligned with the athletes’ surroundings … And that’s only possible with a clear view of every single detail. //JESSIE MACLEAN - ORICA-AIS WOMEN’S TEAM IF YOU NEVER TRY, YOU’LL NEVER SEE 56 - ATHLETES 58 - SPORTLIFESTYLE 02 - FEEL 04 - TECHNOLOGY 10 - LENS REFERENCES 12 - PRESCRIPTION 14 - SHIELD 16 - COMPETITOR CYCLING 62 - TP9 LIMITED EDITION 78 - LADIES ONLY 84 - JUNIOR PROGRAM TECHNOLOGIES 18 - CYCLING 26 - COMPETITOR GOLF 28 - GOLF TECHNOLOGY 34 - COMPETITOR MARINE TECHNOLOGY COMPROMISE?

  • Alana Nichols
    USG-Sponsored Team USA Athletes ALANA NICHOLS I love what I do. I absolutely love it, and I believe in myself. I really do believe that I can accomplish what I set out to accomplish. —Alana Nichols The words ‘courage’, ‘determination’ and ‘champion’ are used a lot when describing Olympians. But when it comes to Alana Nichols, those words have never been more accurate. At the age of 17, Alana Nichols was snowboarding during an annual family vacation in Colorado. Attempting an ambitious back flip on the snowy mountains, Alana over twisted, lost control and landed forcefully on a rock, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. The years that followed required tremendous courage and commitment as she recovered from this accident and became even stronger than she was before. While recuperating, Alana took an interest in the sport of wheelchair basketball. After two years of hard work and training, she found herself as an alternate for the U.S. Women’s Team during the 2004 Paralympic Games in Athens. Alana’s determination eventually led to her becoming a full-time member of the national team. And in 2006, she won her first silver medal at the 2006 Wheelchair Basketball Championship. In 2008, Alana was on the big stage again at the Paralympic Games, this time on a basketball court on the other side of the world, in Beijing, China. And that day, she and her teammates won Gold. But Alana, didn’t celebrate long. Instead, she moved to Colorado, with her eye set on an entirely different sport – Alpine skiing.

    Preserving Maine’s Skiing Heritage • Summer 2014 A quarterly publication of the Ski Museum of Maine, Kingfield, Maine • 207-265-2023 www.skimuseumofmaine.org • [email protected] Finding ‘lost’ ski areas: History hobby has strong roots in Maine By Scott Andrews Editor, Snow Trail They seek telltale remnants of skiing’s past: the lanky steel frame of a long-abandoned T-bar terminal thrusting through the puckerbrush, an ancient automobile engine rusting on a hilltop or a lone sheave train wedged in the branches of a tree. It’s the search for “lost” ski areas. It’s a interesting hobby and it’s happening all over the U.S. Few of the many practitioners know that the national lost ski area phenomenon has strong Maine roots and draws inspiration from our state. Or that Glenn Parkinson, who recently retired as president of the board of directors of the Ski Museum of Maine, was both a pioneer and an inspiration. It’s been nearly four decades since the T-bar at Mt. Agamenticus in York carried its last skier, but the derelict machinery still fascinates people who seek “lost” ski areas. Above: Cherie Perkins gazes at the upper Please turn to page 6 bullwheel. (Scott Andrews photo) 1 From the president... As the Ski Museum of Maine begins a new fiscal more and more year, we are laying the groundwork for updating of these stories our strategic plan, which I find very exciting.

HISTORIQUE DU SPORT Après avoir figuré trois fois au programme des Jeux olympiques, le surf des neiges n’est plus considéré comme un « petit nouveau ». Toutefois, il a toujours la réputation d’être le plus dynamique, le plus progressif et le plus influent de tous les sports d’hiver. Il est donc difficile de savoir qui a construit la première planche à neige. Depuis qu’ils jouent dans la neige, les enfants tentent de dévaler la pente la plus proche en se tenant debout sur leur luge. On sait toutefois que la première planche à neige a été lancée sur le marché en 1965. Créé par Sherman Poppen de Muskegon, au Michigan, le « Snurfer » n’était en fait que deux skis retenus ensemble que le surfeur « stabilisait » en tenant une corde fixée à l’avant. Plus d’un demi-million de ces « jouets » ont été vendus dans les années 1960 et le Snurfer a révolutionné les sports d’hiver. Quatre autres personnes sont associées à l’origine du surf des neiges que l’on appelle aussi planche à neige.

  • Maine Olympians Exhibit Made Possible by the Generous Support of Maine Is a Special Place
    From the Pine Tree State to the World Stage Did you know that Maine has sent an athlete or coach to every Winter Olympic Games since 1948? Many other Mainers have served as officials and technical advisors over the years. We invite you to meet these remarkable people, and explore why Maine is home to so many outstanding Nordic and Alpine skiers, jumpers, and snowboarders. Maine Olympians exhibit made possible by the generous support of Maine is a special place Maine’s landscape, history, and communities have all played a part in the state’s Winter Olympic story. History Scandanavian immigrants first brought cross country skiing to Maine in 1870 when the state recruited more than 100 Swedes to immigrate and settle the town of New Sweden in northern Maine. Soon Norwegian and Finnish immigrants followed and settled across the state, bringing their skiing traditions and competitive spirit. In the early 20th century, towns celebrated winter with Winter Carnivals featuring Nordic competitions in cross country and ski jumping. Rivalries and the establishment of ski clubs and ski facilities followed, as Mainers pursued their passion for snow. Skiers, New Sweden, ca. 1935 Collections of New Sweden Historical Society Landscape Maine’s landscape is ideal for developing outstanding winter athletes. From miles and miles of cross country trails to challenging alpine terrain, opportunities to learn and perfect skiing and snowboarding skills abound. Communities Maine, a largely rural state, is known for its close knit communities. Several communities have developed strong Nordic and Alpine programs that have encouraged and supported young athletes. Maine’s many small community ski areas make skiing and snowboarding accessible and affordable to a broad range of people, and several Maine high schools have highly competitive ski teams.

    goggle and helmet collection collection casques et masques We know all about the life. We’ve been living it since the beginning. It all started in a small town nestled on the edge of the French Alps. That’s where Seraphin Bollé and his son pursued their passion, utilizing a mix of innovation, self-sufficiency and plain hard work to create Bollé ®. To this day, we employ that same alpine attitude in everything we do, developing helmets and goggles with a mix of cutting-edge technology and pure intuition. Nous connaissons la vie. C’est elle qui nous inspire depuis le début. Tout a commencé dans la petite ville d’Oyonnax, nichée au pied des Alpes Françaises. C’est là que Seraphin Bollé et son fils ont fondé Bollé à partir d’un savant mélange d’innovation, d’expériences et de détermination.
