OLYMPIC SILVER MEDALLIST TO JOIN SBX COACHING TEAM AT EVOLVE

SBX Olympic Silver Medallist Mike Robertson is to join brother Adam with the Evolve Ski & Snowboard Club, giving their Performance team the strongest coaching team in the country

Mike will focus on coaching athletes in the Evolve Ski & Snowboard Club Performance Snowboardcross program, helping Canada’s next generation of SBX riders to reach their dreams in the sport. Mike will join his brother Adam Robertson who has led many of the current National Team members to where they are now. This Evolve team has a great combination of competitive experience and coaching background. The Evolve team also has it’s own full time SBX track at the Lake Louise Ski Area, which will give its high performance athletes all the training tools they require to succeed at the highest level.

At the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, Mike claimed the silver medal in Snowboardcross. Showing great dedication to the sport and pushing through many injuries in his career, Mike achieved a career best result by claiming the silver medal. Mike’s superior technical skills and mental toughness allowed him to succeed on this important day.

Mike ran into injury troubles and sustained a concussion on the World Cup circuit, following the Olympics, that sidelined him for the 2010/2011 season. Mike is taking another year off competitive SBX on his road to recovery and he believes coaching would be a great way to give back to the sport that has given him so much.
