Taking Action and Apparel to the Extreme
The Winter X Games is the world’s premier winter action sports event. Columbia Sportswear is a world-class provider of performance wear for extreme winter conditions. Together, each makes the other better.
Columbia Sportswear is – again – an official apparel provider of the exciting 12th annual event, which will take place January 24-27 at Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen/Snowmass, Colorado. Columbia provides Titanium apparel for VIPs, staff and athletes including the Top-O-Graphic™ Half Zip and Peak to Creek™ Parka. A worldwide audience will see appealing apparel and amazing athletes perform at their peak in the high altitude and thin air of the Colorado Rockies.
The Winter X Games will feature three exciting new competitions – in addition to the traditional ski, snowboard and snowmobile races and freestyle contests – and will be broadcast in high definition (HD) television for the first time, showing the event and great Columbia gear in rich detail. Columbia Sportswear sponsored athletes Anik Demers-Wild, Davey Barr, Zach Crist and Polo De Le Rue are among the contestants vying for glory.
