ROKA Partners with Jordan "Rappstar" Rapp

ROKA Sports, Inc. is pleased to announce a multi-year partnership with five-time Ironman winner and 2011 ITU Long Distance World Champion, Jordan Rapp.

“With a design team comprised of world-class swimmers with strong technical backgrounds, ROKA approaches every product from the standpoint of, how do we best solve this problem?” Said Rapp, “Rather than simply following what’s been done before. That mentality defines their current products and also some exciting products that are coming down the pipeline. And I’m proud to join and assist in the process.”

“I’m very excited to be joining the ROKA team. The Maverick Pro fits me perfectly and is a true joy to swim in.” Rapp added, “The Viper swimskins offer a real advantage. With swimskins being an essential tool for the biggest races in my season – especially Kona, I needed to partner with a company that excelled in both wetsuit and swimskin design, and ROKA certainly is that company.”

ROKA Vice President of Sales and Marketing Ryan Dolan said, “Jordan is an exceptionally talented athlete and well known for his technical approach to racing. He is a trusted and well-respected voice in the endurance sports community, especially concerning product choice and utilization for optimal training and racing. We are proud that Jordan Rapp trusts ROKA products and we are happy to have him as a part of the ROKA team.”
