Managing Director

With distinguished careers as a ski bum and a MTB racer, in 1999 Clint made the choice to create Allsport after an awesome MTB in the Redwoods in Rotorua. The philosophy behind Allsport was to supply quality outdoor products and equipment that would enhance the users experience and their performance. Allsport started with Marmot and has grown since then to include a number of top brands - the philosophy however remains the same.

I'm a native Kune fella,(Ohakune) who is always out and about. I am a keen outdoors man, which is why I chose this industry to work in. We sell fantastic products from... Run,Cycle, Mountaineering and Skiing which for me'..is damn fine. I've travelled the world and enjoyed many things, but I still find myself grounded by the beautiful country in which we live.

Executive Dispatch Analyst

I have been part of the Allsports team since March 2008, when I moved back to my hometown of Taupo. Before that I spent four years in Wellington studying Fine Art and completing a degree in Art History. Art is my main interest in life, and I love drawing, painting and being generally crafty. I also love getting out into nature, which I’m making the most of now that I’m out of the city. Since hanging out with the Allsports crew I have been trying new things like rock climbing and skiing.

I have been working with the Allsports team since early 2006 and love it. We are lucky enough to have our office based at beautiful Lake Taupo which is the perfect setting for the outdoor activities my partner and 5 ½ year old daughter enjoy so much. I like to snowboard, mountain bike and make the most of summer by the lake.

Hi, I’m Jamie. I’ve been working with the team at Allsports since November 2006 when I moved to Taupo from Wellington. As I suspected I would, I love living in Taupo. There’s so much to keep me busy here – if you can’t find me in the Allsports Warehouse I’m probably up a mountain, on the lake, in the bush, on a bike, hanging from a cliff or punishing my car on the racetrack.

Jo Allan

Financial Controller

I started working for Allsports in February 2008 after a long break from paid employment, raising my three children Marika 13, Crosby 10 and Kyla 8. I work part time and this allows me to maintain my property investments and family life. Leisure time is taken up with bush walking, mountain biking and a touch of skiing, albeit badly. One day I want to walk the Inca Trail. The staff at Allsports are inspirational and I relish coming to work every day, and I have a stunning view from my desk!

I have always been into the outdoors and enjoy a range of activities from MTB to snowboarding, road cycling, walking and yoga. Having recently moved to Taupo from Wellington I’m adjusting to the change of lifestyle and making it my mission to hunt out the best cafés in town! I love travelling and am always planning the next adventure.

I’m your friendly South Island Sales Representative for Marmot, Scarpa, Ahnu and Mont. Originally from New Mexico, I’ve been based in the Wakatipu for the past five plus years. I’m an avid four season hiker, mountain biker, shredder of the gnar, i.e. snowboarder and a sometimes rock climber. A combination of top end product, fantastic retailers and a great team make working for Allsports Distribution a treat indeed.

I am the North Island Sales Rep for Marmot, Scarpa, Ahnu, Sherpa and Mont. Originally from Canada, I have called Taupo home for over 5 years. Between the climbing, skiing and BBQ’s on the lake, there are not many places in the world I would rather be!

Accounts Manager

I have been working at Allsports since April 2005 and thoroughly enjoy my role as Accounts Manager and the rapport within the team is second to none. I am an avid follower of netball and since my playing days are long over have taken up running and cycling and the opportunity to utilise our fantastic outdoor/run/cycle product to achieve one of my long term goals – to compete in the Taupo Half Ironman.
