I am Grete Gaim, an Estonian biathlete. I come from Elva, the hometown of many other biathletes as well. Since 2006, however, I have lived in Otepää, which is Estonia's number 1 training location for a biathlete.
I have been a member of the youth and junior national teams, and since 2011 I have been on the senior A national team. I am a multiple Estonian champion in various age classes. In 2012 I was crowned Youth World Champion. My best World Cup result so far is 27th place. I have represented Estonia at several World Championships as well as at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games.
My wish to start using Oakley glasses in training, competitions and in my free time was not a coincidence but a firm decision. After trying borrowed Oakley glasses, I immediately realised how good, high-quality and comfortable sports glasses can be - on top of that, they are stylish and beautiful, and you can always personalise them.
My eyes have been very sensitive ever since I was a small child. So I have worn sports glasses during training for as long as I can remember. I have also worn prescription glasses for years and later had laser eye surgery, which means that lens quality is very important to me. Since childhood I have been used to protecting my eyes from the sun and from tears caused by cold and wind. With Oakley glasses I can always be sure that when I ski downhill my eyes won't water, and when I train at high intensity in the mountains under the sun, my eyes are protected.
As most of a biathlete's preparation is done in summer and autumn, my equipment also includes a proper Oakley bike helmet. I use the helmet almost every day for roller skiing and cycling. So the helmet also has to be comfortable and safe.
My heart belongs to Oakley!
