Molly Armanino

Meet Molly. 

Molly Armanino grew up in Placerville, California, just outside of Lake Tahoe, where she started skiing at the age of two and never looked back. After years of ski racing, she shifted her focus to backcountry freeskiing at 18—trading gates for big lines and deeper exploration. Today, Molly is known for tackling bold terrain and completing first descents in remote mountain ranges, earning her reputation as one of the leading female freeride athletes. Her adventures have taken her across the globe, from the Freeride World Tour to now the World Championships and beyond.

Off the mountain, Molly channels her passion into climate advocacy. She runs a nonprofit based in South Lake Tahoe dedicated to local climate action and outreach—because for her, protecting the mountains is just as essential as skiing them.

Why ZipFit?

I choose Zipfit because they are comfortably aggressive, they no keep my toes warm and help me ski more confidently in competition and in the backcountry.
