The organisers of IRONMAN UK are pleased to announce that they have signed a three-year deal with Quintana Roo Wetsuits to be the Official Wetsuit of the UK IRONMAN 70.3 and IRONMAN UK triathlons. The three-year deal covers the 2007, 2008 and 2009 races and shows the commitment of Quintana Roo to UK triathlon and IRONMAN racing.

Quintana Roo Wetsuits pride themselves on offering technical innovation, superior performance and the perfect combination of buoyancy and speed. With three models covering a range of abilities, from the top of the line Superfull to the entry level performance orientated ultra full they have a suit to suit all abilities.

As part of the wetsuit sponsorship, Quintana Roo will be offering a wetsuit testing opportunity at the IRONMAN UK Course Familiarisations Camp and IRONMAN UK Taster Days. Quintana Roo will also be on hand at the IRONMAN UK and UK IRONMAN 70.3 to offer advice and help to those looking to get the most from their wetsuits. They will also be offering a testing facility at the races at the organised swim session. Official Retailer TRI UK will also be offering the complete range of Quintana Roo wetsuits in store throughout the year and athletes will be able to try them out in the in-store Rapid River pool.

Dean Jackson, Brand Manager of Quintana Roo believes the partnership will be a good one, “IRONMAN UK is a great race with great competitors and at Quintana Roo we believe in supporting triathlon and triathletes. I am sure that the IRONMAN UK competitors will embrace what we are doing at QR and hopefully we can help them achieve their swimming goals”.

The new QR Superfull is the most functional suit in the market place today, offering buoyancy, flexibility and speed. Backed by new Virtual Pull Buoy (VPB) technology, foot release system and breakaway zipper all wrapped up in the new high end Yammamoto Type 40 Neoprene, QR are again one step ahead of the competition.
