TEAM GrEEN<br />
oNE For ALL, ALL For <strong>ELAN</strong>. This varied bunch of<br />
people is the perfect example for the saying where the<br />
whole is greater than the sum of its parts. From alpine<br />
racers to base jump skiers, from freeskiers to downhill<br />
aficionados, every member of Team Green brings<br />
something different and unique to the table. Together, this<br />
team is absolutely inst<strong>ru</strong>mental in Elan's on-going R&D.<br />
1. CHrISTIAN MAYEr<br />
Even after a successful racing<br />
career in the World Cup, Christian<br />
still ikes to get his adrenaline<br />
pumping. So, whenever time<br />
permits, he sits in a rally racing car<br />
and tries to brake as late as<br />
possible before a bend. He says this<br />
is the same as in skiing - the later<br />
you brake, the faster you go! As a<br />
t<strong>ru</strong>e sportsman he likes other sports<br />
as well - football, hockey, tennis and<br />
especially golf.<br />
2. ANDrEJ ŠPorN<br />
Andrej’s first start on the FIS World<br />
Cup circuit was at the age of 20, but<br />
the interesting fact for a speed<br />
master is his first discipline was<br />
slalom. Even after a promising top<br />
10 finish, Andrej decided to focus<br />
on faster disciplines like super-G<br />
and downhill. An excellent decision,<br />
since just last year he finished<br />
second at the mighty Kitzbuhel<br />
downhill race and recorded top<br />
speed of the day!<br />
3. GLEN PLAKE<br />
Glen Plake is the “original” freeskier<br />
and a t<strong>ru</strong>e free spirit in every<br />
possible way. Born and raised in<br />
California, he started skiing after<br />
being inspired by his math (!)<br />
teacher, who showed the class an<br />
outtake from the 70's cult ski flick<br />
Outer limits. Appartently to<br />
demonstrate a math principle. Is<br />
that a cool teacher, or what?<br />
4. UrŠKA HroVAT<br />
As one of the most promising and<br />
talented skiers in her generation,<br />
Urška won several World Cup and<br />
World Championship medals.<br />
Always ambitious and resourceful,<br />
today Urška is a valuable asset for<br />
the Team, working towards the<br />
progression of women's skiing.<br />
5. ANA JELUŠIČ<br />
Ana received a warm welcome to<br />
the Team Green and we suspect her<br />
looks was not completely unrelated<br />
to it. Nevertheless this talented<br />
Croatian skier has a bright future<br />
ahead, confirming her right direction<br />
with a podium finish on her home<br />
race in Zagreb.<br />
