World's leading swimwear brand, Speedo unveiled the FASTSKIN FSII Ice speed suit that will be worn by US sledding hopefuls at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy, February 10-26.
With the introduction of the FASTSKIN FSII Ice, one of the most aerodynamically advanced suits ever developed, athletes will compete in Speedo for the first time at a Winter Olympics. With Olympic heritage dating back to 1932, 47 Olympic medals were earned by athletes wearing Speedo at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.
Born on Bondi Beach near Sydney, Australia in 1928, SPEEDO is the world's top-selling swimwear brand.
The brand's heritage derives from its leadership in competitive swimming, where more Olympic Gold Medals have been won in Speedo than any other brand.
Eight-time Olympic Medalist Michael Phelps and seven-time Olympic medalist Amanda Beard are among the elite swimmers who wear SPEEDO FASTSKIN technology.
Building on its authentic base, the SPEEDO product line has dramatically expanded over the years.
It now includes women's fashion and fitness swimwear, men's water shorts, kid's swimwear, active wear, footwear, and a comprehensive collection of aquatic and fitness equipment.
