Description:
Where to begin... It is not a company yet. I have an extensive background in extreme sports as a competitor and through my injuries have developed sports gear that will almost eliminate knee, elbow and shoulder injuries typical in downhill sports and football. I have made prototypes with 100% success as far as injuries go- none in the past three years- and I am now moving into the carbon fiber arena. I have the support of my orthopedic surgeon, a member of the NFLA, and a technician for a major toy and equipment testing facility who has also used my gear for his own competitions. This has great potential for growth in all contact sports.
