OPINION LEADER PROGRAM 2014/2015

MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE COUNT

WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

ION is all about progress and innovation.The brand is run by people who transform their passion for water sports into unique progressive designs and innovative technology.And our mission is to develop the most progressive wetsuit on the market.

Sometimes there is a ground breaking innovation like our brand new NEXKIN technology. But often it is the small details that makes the difference. And who else could give us more helpful feedback than the guys living their passion every day, being in the water no matter what challenging conditions they are facing. We would like to hear unfiltered, objective and authentic feedback, different to the feedback of pro athletes who are influenced by the commitment to their sponsoring brand.

That‘s why we developed the "Make Your Experience Count" opinion leader program, to get the feedback of the core surf scene.Because we believe that the experience of these guys can make the little differences we are searching for. And together we can further enhance our products, push progression and take wetsuit technology to the next level.

We decided to establish this program and invite a few selected guys in Europe. These opinion leaders will receive an exclusive testing package, inclu- ding the brand-new ONYX AMP wetsuit and a lot of useful gear.

Additionally each of them will have the opportunity to join a photo award competition and win a one-year ION gear sponsorship.

FLEX_CONTROL MAXIMUM FLEX COMBINED WITH NINJA_KNEES CONSTRUCTION NEW!

WARM & COSY THANKS TO HOT_STUFF LINING

S_SEAL SEAM PROTECTION

CRASH_PADZ PROTECTION OF SHINS

S_Seal

ION’s approved highly elastic liquid seam sealing

glue for outstanding water sealing and even greater

bomb proof tearing strength of GBS_Seams.

Ninja_Knees NEW!

What’s the most common thing a customer does

in the shop? Exactly, pulling the wetsuit’s arms.

But hey, the legs deserve at least the same attention!

Therefore the new Ninja_Knees feature uses the

same high elastic material used in the arm panels.

The result is an amazing freedom of movement

while bending your knees.

Crash_Padz (shins)

Additional Neoprene pads protect sensitive body

areas like shins, ribs, crotch, hips, tail bone, etc.

against pressure and impact injuries. The number

of pads varies according to the suit. Each pad

consists of a special high density K_Type Neoprene

foam to damp the impact force.
