Snow, Cameras, Action

The winter season is winding down. It's beginning to feel like spring in the Eastern states and the conditions are great. It's this time of year when companies, magazines, resorts, and retailers often do their photo shoots. The light is great, there's still lots of snow, and it's nice to be out on the hill. KJUS conducted its annual photo shoot and movie last week in Norway and many of our retailers have requested samples of next year's line for their own shoots.

Here are a couple of shots with sneak previews of next seasons line from a recent shoot by Vail Resorts. He's wearing next year's Formula in grenadine and she has on the New Ways in peat with grenadine.

"That's So KJUS"

Last week I had the pleasure of traveling around the Rocky Mountain territory with our International Sales Manager Nico Serena and Rocky Mountain Sales Representative Bruce Mackenzie. We had a great trip visiting many of our dealers in Park City, Aspen, and Vail, including Cole Sport, Gorsuch, Aspen Sports, Hamilton Sports, Beaver Creek Sports, and Performance Sports to name a few.

While in Aspen we had an evening out with Casey Puckett, who joined the KJUS team this year and will be looking to add to his trophy case in skier cross. Casey is a force in the sport and is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. You can keep tabs on his progress on WCSN where he has a blog. In his most recent post, he discusses his most favorite new saying...

My agent, Lowell Taub, had such a good experience working with the company he replaced the phrase “that’s so awesome, great, wonderful, fantastic, etc.” with “that’s so Kjus,” and now I’ve adopted the phrase. So anytime you think something is awesome, you can just say “that’s so Kjus!” People may or may not know what in the world you’re talking about, but they will.

Puckett, you're so KJUS-
