Julbo athlete Ophelie David wins fourth gold at X Games
Ophelie David of France and her Julbo goggles were the first to cross the finish line in the Women's Skier X event at the Winter X Games. David made history on January 31 in Aspen as she took home her fourth straight gold medal, making her the first skier — male or female — of any Winter X skiing discipline to earn a four-peat. The 33-year-old fought her way to pass two Canadian women halfway through the course and held them off to claim a record fourth gold. Watch a video of the winning run on The Julbo Blog page.
Meet Julbo's newest athlete: Glen Plake
American freestyle skiing and extreme sports legend Glen Plake has joined Julbo as an international ambassador. With Glen’s involvement in product development, and more technical goggles in the pipeline for 2010, the potential for Julbo’s expanding goggle range in the U.S. is super-charged. Plake spends many winters in Chamonix, a mecca for freeskiing in the backyard of Julbo’s corporate headquarters in France. This winter, Plake and his wife, Kimberly, are also traveling in their motor home and skiing nearly every ski area in America's Pacific Northwest.
