Atheletes - Team 22Alison Gannett
During the winter, she also travels with her HammerHead demo fleet - for her women’s camps and co-ed camps such as her Indian Himalayan Touring adventure. She also spends much of her spare time making the world a better place – straw bale home building, motivational speaking, founding non-profits, and improving building efficiency, which we dig. This winter she's traveling on her Global Cooling Tour. See her website for details: www.alisongannett.com Where are you from, when did you begin skiing and telemarking, where do you ski most now?
What are your favorite boots and skis?Karhu Jil and Garmont Ener G. What do you like about HammerHeads?Telemark bindings have in the past been the forgotten step child - when boots were wimpy and skis noodly the interface between the two was a moot point. Suddenly with plastic boots and fat skis, the binding is slowly moving to the forefront. HammerHeads are one of the only binders on the market that allow for the control and quickness that telemarking deserves. When I tried my first pair, I suddenly realized what I had been missing all those years - durability, precision, torsional stiffness, quickness, responsiveness, and adaptability. On my demo skis the binding can fit any size boot without changing cables, and I can switch the flex with the push of a button to allow for peoples' different skiing styles and abilities. The binding has taken my own personal skiing to the next level - like suddenly driving a Porsche when you had only ever driven an Escort. In addition, I never boot out and have almost zero heel droop. Between each plunge of the knee, I feel the control and snap that my alpine setup delivers. What do you like to do for fun when you’re not skiing?I love to surf, mountain bike, read books, work hard, practice yoga, climb ice and rock, laugh with my friends, family and boyfriend, and try to save the world on the side.
