Maximum performance, maximum results. Under this premise, at the 2009 Ironman in Frankfurt Rudy Project conquered the top two steps of the women’s podium with German Sandra Wallenhorst and Dutchwoman Yvonne van Vlerken as well as first place in the men’s category with German Timo Bracht, who achieved a new record in this competition with the time of 7:59:16.
They call them ironmen because the sport they have chosen is grueling and spectacular, with competitors moving without interruption from one part of the race to another, drawing on strength and resistance and showing excellent coordination skills, combining sports that are completely different from each other: swimming, cycling and running. Alongside such athletes Rudy Project was a must; with its most innovative eyewear and helmets, it is the brand with a multisport soul.
In fact, triathletes Wallenhorst and van Vlerken tested the brand new Wingspan helmet at this competition. The Wingspan, engineered in a wind tunnel under the expert attention of the American aerodynamics guru John Cobb, will be launched officially on the market in September. They also wore SportMask Performance eyewear with wide wrap-around lenses, characterized by a front spacer which improves ventilation and avoids blurring. Timo Bracht, on the other hand, chose the ultra-light Noyz Fluo glasses in Grilamid, which ensure perfect optical vision thanks to Rudy Project’s special patented ImpactX sun lenses, making it easier to concentrate on the competition and aim for maximum results.
With top research and development, use of avant-garde materials and technology and extreme attention to detail, Rudy Project’s eyewear and helmets are the best guarantee of efficiency and safety, the perfect companions for tackling the most extreme sports.
