Andy Knouse | Global Guide

Meet Our Team

Andy has a strong passion for anything that pushes his mind and body to its potential! His greatest achievement as a child was making the Junior Olympic Team as a gymnast. As an adult his passion turned towards adventure: Skiing, Mountain Biking, Road Biking, Rock Climbing, Kayaking, Surfing, Trail Running and Hiking!

He loves to plan, execute and reach the goal…and in most cases…it’s the top, but it’s the in-between that really matters; overcoming obstacles, alternate routes and working as a team!

Throughout the years he has represented Smith Optics, Fischer Skis, Fate Clothing, Smartwool Socks, Zardoz Wax and Level Gloves. He has been published in Powder, Freeze, Freeskier, Backcounty, Off-Piste and Mountain magazines.
