/ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Quintana Roo and Challenge Family announce a multi-year partnership naming Quintana Roo the Official Global Swim Partner of Challenge Family, beginning a collaboration that brings the original triathlon wetsuit brand to Challenge Family events throughout Europe, Asia and beyond.

Now in its 21st year, Challenge Family hosts over 30 long and middle-distance triathlons around the globe. Focusing on delivering an unmatched race experience to athletes of all ages and abilities, Challenge Family races provide unforgettable experiences that capture the excitement and emotion of this inspirational sport for competitors, friends, family and supporters alike. Challenge Family has been creating innovative events fostering the healthy growth of multisport lifestyles, together with partners sharing ethical values and business morals.

“Very few know triathlon quite like Quintana Roo. With the development of the first triathlon- specific bike and wetsuit to their name, their contribution to the sport is unquestionable,” said Jort Vlam, Challenge Family CEO. “It is this commitment to athlete experience that provides such great alignment with Challenge Family and we are delighted to add Quintana Roo as our Global Swim Partner, alongside our previously announced global bike partnership. Together we look forward to continuing to break new ground and bring the ultimate race experience to our athletes.”

As the brand to create the first triathlon-specific wetsuit, Quintana Roo has maintained their place as a category leader for 36 years. QR’s HYDROsix and HYDROfive wetsuits are constructed of premium materials, featuring minimal seam placement for maximized flexibility and strategic panel placement for targeted flotation, flexibility and comfort. To truly bring a suit that fits every triathlete, Quintana Roo is the first and only brand with fit designed around body type rather than gender. The resulting wetsuits pair pro-level flexibility with comfort and flotation, setting a new standard for fit among triathletes of all levels. The Quintana Roo wetsuit range is augmented by QR’s HYDROspeed sleeved and sleeveless swimskin range.

With a direct-to-consumer sales model, Quintana Roo wetsuits are ordered by triathletes directly online at quintanarootri.com, and shipped from its headquarters in Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA to triathletes around the world. Each suit is backed by a 14-day money back guarantee and a two- year, no-fault warranty. Quintana Roo maintains a staff of easy-to-access experts that assist in the online purchase and delivery of Quintana Roo wetsuits, including onsite support at select events around the world.

Quintana Roo will have wetsuits displayed on-site—alongside a selection of Quintana Roo bikes—at select Challenge Family events across Europe including Challenge Roth, London, Šamorín, Almere and more. For further information visit www.quintanarootri.com.
