New wetsuit brand, deboer, has announced a three-year partnership with Daniela Ryf. The addition of the 4-time reigning IRONMAN World Champion (2015-2018) to deboer’s sponsored athlete roster follows hot-on-the-heels of the brand’s launch, and its tie-up with former IRONMAN World Champion Jan Frodeno.
In a release, deboer wetsuits points to Daniela Ryf’s remarkable resume:
- 4-time reigning IRONMAN World Champion (2015 – 2018)
- 4-time reigning IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion (2014, 2015, 2017, 2018)
- IRONMAN World Championship Course Record Holder (8:26:18 in 2018)
The company noted… ‘At deboer we are even more impressed by Daniela’s relentless pursuit to go even faster. Daniela is dedicated to her craft and uncompromising on the race course. We are proud that she has chosen to swim in the deboer Fjord 1.0 and Flōh 1.0 wetsuits, and the deboer Tsunami swimskin.’
Daniela Ryf said “I expect a lot from myself and I expect a lot from the equipment I use. My wetsuit needs to be fast, to fit perfectly, and to be comfortable. The deboer wetsuits really impressed me as the flexibility is the best I’ve ever swam in. I was also impressed with the whole team’s attention to detail and dedication to create a high performance wetsuit. I’m very excited to be part of the deboer team.”
Alex de Boer, co-founder of deboer wetsuits said “We are very excited to be working with Daniela Ryf. Daniela has raised the bar for women in the sport, and she makes plenty of the pro men nervous whenever she’s on the start line.
“At deboer we love that Daniela has not rested on her laurels, satisfied with her terrific achievements in the sport. Instead, Daniela continues to push her limits, and look for any edge to keep her in front of her competition. We’ve seen how hard Daniela work’s day-in and day-out to get the best version of herself to the start line.”
He continued, “Seeing that drive motivates us ensure we are providing Daniela with the best equipment for race day. We are proud to provide Daniela with the Fjord 1.0 and Flōh 1.0 wetsuits, and the Tsunami swimskin as she continues to re-write the record books and make us rethink what is possible.”
