Karbon Ships Hyperlite Technology

Toronto, Ontario. September 20, 2005

Schure Sports is proud to deliver its new fabric technology for fall ’05, called Hyperlite. This high density, light weight fabric ensures the technical function and comfort of all Karbon garments. Hyperlite 2-ply can be found in Quantum, Crystal Fusion, and Graphite Beta, and Junior Early Buy, while Hyperlite 3-ply is the fabric of choice for the new lightweight men’s and women’s 3-ply garments. Hyperlite is a 100% nylon fabric, weighing 120g. per square meter with a waterproof/breathable coating of 20 000.


Kim Roberts, Alpine Program Manager at Alpine Ski Club noted, “Chances are if you are an avid skier you understand what it is like to ski in all snow and weather conditions…..What makes this experience even more rewarding is when you are physically comfortable in your outerwear.

 
Why? When I ski I like the freedom of movement and the ability to only enjoy the sport, not worry about being too cold, too warm or worse yet too wet. This past season I was given an opportunity to enjoy my favorite ‘winter’ sport, while wearing a new fabric that Karbon Sports has adopted as part of their outerwear line….. I enjoyed freedom of movement, and a stable body temperature while skiing in cooler and warmer temperatures….I loved the suit, and as a true testimony I couldn’t bring myself to give it back! Fashion, Function and Fun all rolled into one great suit. I think that says it all.”

Schure Sports utilized their national team sponsorships to test garments. Hyperlite was sent to the World Champion Australian Aerial Team and 3 time World Cup overall champion Jacqui Cooper had this to say, "My Flying Kangaroo's Karbon competition uniform was a pleasure to wear. The light weight athletic material made it very easy to flip and twist in, while still keeping me very warm and dry. Our suit is designed and manufactured to give us a technical edge over the rest of the world; the hyperlite material gave us exactly that, while looking and feeling great."

"Light and functional, Hyperlite garments deliver maximum protection from the elements without weighing you down with unnecessary bulk. These garments provide exceptional wearability and freedom of motion. Freeing you to perform above and beyond the competition." stated Sarah Wallace, Schure Sports designer. P>
