Williston, Vermont isn't that big of a town. When the ProXCT schedule was announced last year with a stop in Williston I instantly recognized the name. The Julbo USA headquarters are located there. Julbo has been a long time sponsor for me and I've been a fan of their glasses for nearly 20 years (read the back story here). Last year we tried to connect a visit, but it didn't work out due to hectic schedules on both ends. So this year I was thrilled to make a visit happen. Andrew, who is doing the PR work (Press Forward) for Julbo was there so we could meet and make a video. (Julbo's FB and instagram pages, have been upgraded, take a look!).

They sent me home with some new glasses that I've been wearing ever since. I promptly raced in the latest version and color of the Ultra, which will be released next month. They also sent a pair of Lola's, the newest frames for children for my son (see photo below). Right now, for the next month, he is THE ONLY KID in North America with these frames. He was so stoked on them, that I got him to stand still AND smile for a photo!

Watch for a release of some Heritage Frames (from the 1980's) in the next few weeks as well.

Fun new colors on these "Heritage Frames"
