Triathlon Ireland has confirmed it is teaming up with British wetsuit brand Zone3, with the brand now on board as Official Swim Partner to Triathlon Ireland. Zone3 is supporting Triathlon Ireland and the country’s National Junior Squad for 2013 and 2014.
Zone 3 was established in 2008 by elite triathlete James Lock who has competed for Ireland on numerous occasions. Lock is a noted swimmer, exiting first out of the water at many elite triathlon events, and is a former Age Group Aquathlon World Champion. As noted by Triathlon Ireland, this in-depth knowledge of the sport, combined with years of research at Loughborough University, has enabled the development of some of the highest performance wetsuits available on the market.
“Zone 3 is renowned as having some of the best wetsuits on the market,” said Triathlon Ireland’s High Performance Director, Chris Jones.
“The Triathlon Ireland Junior Squad are competing at the top level so it’s important that we support them as much as possible and teaming up with Zone 3 allows them to compete in the best equipment available.”
Craig Wood, Zone3’s Athlete Sponsorship Manager added, “Zone3 prides itself on working with athletes of all ability and looks forward to working closely with the Triathlon Ireland squad.”
