Looking at Jon Olsson's blog and pictures, i noticed he is wearing Poc goggles and not Yniq goggles. Yet, when i go to Yniq's website, it still has Jon on their Ambassadors page. Im just wondering if he still is with the company, if they are still around, or if he is just not riding for them anymore. Anyone got any answers?

Yniq is "his" company....

I don't think it worked out the way he wanted tho so he let everything into oblivion, at least that's my take on it.

Jon sold his part of yniq a while back to focus on Duchebags instead. Here is a small article about it in swedish: http://www.sportfack.se/artiklar/nyheter/20131104/jon-olsson-saljer-yniq

I translated it for you in google translate, so this is kind of what it says:

A few years ago, Jon Olsson's own eyewear brand - Yniq. Now he is selling its stake to focus on skiing and Douchbags.
The skier Jon Olsson has sold its share in eyewear brand Yniq. He indicates a lack of time as he competes in both the jumps and racing and that he wants to focus more on Douchebags he also is part owner of the main reasons.

In Jon's eyes are now instead glasses and goggles from Poc.
