I’m really really excited to announce that I’ve been accepted as an athlete for Team Five Ten. Five Ten has been making shoes since before I was  that big annoying bump hanging off my mama’s belly. I can remember back when I was a wee lass and had just graduated from the Boreal Ninjas, I was quickly drawn into the world of Five Ten. I would continually climb through pair after pair of the ol’ Dragon’s, refusing to take them off my feet even when my big toe was scrapping against the walls. I just received a box of shoes, which I opened with the gusto of a 5-year old at Christmas time. I’m back wearing Five Ten’s! I’m ecstatic to be an ambassador for such a fantastic and respected company.

In joining the Five Ten team, I have had to resign as a member of Team Mad Rock. Mad Rock invited me to the team in 2003. I can still remember my teenage voice yelling in excitement in my head as I stammered out a trembly ‘thank you..’ to Timy Fairfield as he offered me a spot on the team. In the past 7 years, Mad Rock has supported me endlessly, and I cannot thank them enough. I feel they are a wonderful and innovative company who truly cares for their products and their athletes. I wish them all the best in the future!
