A / In addition
to the robust
website, Skida.
com, customers
can peruse
the downtown
Burlington store
for the current
season’s patterns.
B / Though the
brand started
on skis, Prevot,

joined here by
friend Evan Booth,
loves to ride her
bike on Vermont’s
trails.
C / Prevot bal-
ances chill rides,
like this one with
friend Sarah Loya,
and competing in
enduro mountain
bike races, which

have timed down-
hill sections. “It’s
been blowing up
the last few years.
People are so
enthusiastic.”
D / Prevot
bounces between
tasks at the office.
Here, she helps
assemble pre-
loaded gift boxes.

E / It’s important
to Prevot to have
a company culture
where employees
can get outside,
especially after
a busy winter.
So she adopted
a policy from
another local
business, Burton
Snowboards, of

half-day Fridays
all summer long.
F / Most of the
Skida operations
happen from one
building. Including
fulfillment. Here,
employee Dave
Connors searches
for the right hat.
