Coordinated by professional skier and former competitor Billy O'Donnell, Team O includes both athletes and ambassadors. Big Mountain Freeskiers Kiffor Berg, Lynsey Dyer, Jenn Berg, Frank Shine, and Susan Medville; Slopestyle Competitors Peter and Michael Olenick, and Brent Abrams; Boarding Champion Erin Simmons; Telemark Freeskier Max Mancini; and Disabled Ski and Snowboard Champion Chris Devlin-Young are all part of this year's impressive roster. Collectively, Obermeyer athletes have competed and hold titles in dozens of national and international competitions.

Team Manager Billy O'Donnell states, "Team O brings together a remarkable cross section of athletes and ambassadors who convey a positive image for the brand, company, and their respective sport. Each member's background and discipline vary, but their unbridled enthusiasm contribute to incredible collective team energy. We at Obermeyer are thrilled with the caliber of individuals who will be representing the company this season."
Team O began five years ago with the intent of assembling premier athletes to provide a face for Obermeyer product and help bring the brand to life. The team was also established as a means to give young, up-and-coming, as well as proven athletes, an opportunity to grow their snow sports career with a reputable brand. Team O members are invaluable in the product design process as they provide hands-on evaluation and feedback of Obermeyer product performance.
