TYR signs top US triathlete Matt Chrabot

2010 Miami International Triathlon Champion Matt Chrabot has signed a multi-year endorsement deal with TYR Sport Inc.

TYR will be Chrabot’s primary competitive apparel and swimwear sponsor through to the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

Chrabot joins an elite group of talented athletes sponsored by TYR, which plans to make Chrabot the new face of their Olympic marketing campaign.

“I’m very excited to be part of the TYR family,” said Chrabot, a resident athlete at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.

“TYR has been around since I started swimming as a young athlete in the 1980s and I’ve always been impressed with their suits and performance technology. I am fortunate to have TYR’s support leading up to the London 2012 Olympic Games.”

“We are very happy to have formed a long-term relationship with an athlete of such high calibre as Matt Chrabot," added Ryan Dolan, Vice President of Sales for TYR Sport Inc.

"Matt is well-known for his work ethic and willingness to do what it takes to be the best and win races. We look forward to our push to London 2012 with Matt and USAT."

Chrabot, who is represented by global sports and entertainment marketing leader Octagon, recently finalized endorsement deals with Shimano, PowerBar, Dz-nuts and Yurbuds and is also sponsored by Blue Cycles and Rudy Project.
