Orca sign Kienle

Orca has announced a new sponsorship agreement with 70.3 World Champion Sebastian Kienle.

In 2012 Sebastian Kienle won the 70.3 Championship in Las Vegas and finished fourth in Ironman Kona after a flat tyre when leading the course on the bike leg. Sebastian will exclusively use Orca apparel, clothes, compression technology and wetsuits.

“We are happy to have Sebastian on board for a long partnership, not only for him to be an incredible athlete always fighting till the end, but as well for his extreme and deep interest in being supported by the best products to compete. This will push us forward to develop even better products for triathlon that has been tested by him “stated Rau?l Casan?as, Orca Marketing Manager.

We’ll be testing products from the 2013 Orca range shortly.
