Alter-G

Alter-G, Inc., based in Silicon Valley, was founded in 2005. Their mission is to keep individuals active and moving beyond their best, stretching the limits of ability while redefining what’s possible. In August of 2005 the first product prototype was delivered to Nike’s Oregon Project for distance runners to put it through its paces. Alberto Salazar, Oregon Project Director, was instrumental in working with Alter-G founders to provide feedback for the final G-Trainer product. Additional prototype testers included the Golden State Warriors and the Oakland Raiders.
