Gravity’s Athletic Sponsorship
My own involvement in sports growing up led to my path to becoming a physiotherapist. Injuries are a given when you push the limits to achieve your goals, and there lies the role of the physiotherapist. Athletes already have a lot to focus on and injury management shouldn’t be one of them. That’s why I’ve been involved with the Vernon Vipers Jr. A Hockey Club since 2018 and the Vernon Tigers Jr. B Lacrosse team from 2014-2020. Providing onsite physiotherapy treatment to help assess and manage injuries during the competitive season. Preventing further injury and ensuring a successful return to sport. The goal is to allow these athletes to focus more on training and improvement of their sport, reducing the stress that injuries can bring.

KRISTIN HOIVIK
I am excited to include another athlete in a sport that I’ve participated in and watched my whole life. Freestyle skier Kristin Hoivik has charged onto the slopestyle and freestyle scene with an impressive competitive resume.
Born and raised in Vernon, Kristin (age 16) is currently skiing with the Silver Star Freestyle Club and has her sights set on making the Canadian National Team. Her focus and dedication are unmatched and Gravity is hoping to help make those dreams come true!
When Kristin isn’t skiing or training on the water ramps and trampoline, you can find her downhill mountain biking at Silver Star Mountain.
Check our her YouTube video HERE.
