10^th February 2009: Top swim and triathlon brand, blueseventy, has picked up the “2009 Triathlon Wetsuit of the Year Award” for its ‘Helix’ wetsuit at last weekend’s 220 Triathlon Awards.
 

The 220 Triathlon Awards are the only triathlon specific awards in the U.K voted for by the public and represent the pinnacle of achievement in the triathlon industry. Held at Sandown Race Course, the Awards are the focal point of the TCR Show, which saw an impressive crowd throughout the weekend.
 

The year’s winners were fittingly announced during a glittering ceremony, on the eve of the glamorous BAFTAs. Whilst the Hollywood crowd flocked to London’s Royal Opera House, Esher drew some of British sport’s leading figures, including Olympic gold medalist Tim Brabants and fellow Olympian – triathlon superstar Chrissie Wellington.
 

Dean Jackson, Global Sales and Marketing Manager at blueseventy, commented; “We’re delighted to accept this award, which reaffirms our status as the world leader in triathlon and open water wetsuits, especially as it was voted for by the public. We’ve been designing, testing, and refining our products using the most advanced technology available – and this award is testament to a great product.”
  The award marks an exciting start to the year for the brand as it looks to continue its dominance in triathlon and open water, whilst also making its mark in the pool with some of the biggest athletes in the world choosing blueseventy.
