Training for IASAS

By | Sports | No Comments

We are so lucky to always be part of a group or team that’s so awesome !  The parents do such a great job in making sure the kids train well and win ( haha!! )  Not to mention most of them are tennis players themselves! The past 2 weeks the parents organized training outside the usual training in school. Jean Henri got coaches and invited real life champion players to coach the kids – Felix and Derrick. Take note that our team doesn’t just have tennis moms 🙂 we have the best tennis dads!  We love  bonding with them at the same time the kids are training ( getting pressured haha ) Javs had to train on his bday and there should be no other excuse !  We are GAME ON! #iasas2017#h2hsports#h2hism

rudy-project-1 rudy-project-8 rudy-project-7 rudy-project-6 rudy-project-4 rudy-project-5 rudy-project-3 rudy-project-2Rudy Barbazza, Founder of the performance eyewear brand Rudy Project, has always been a man with a plan. He has always believed that “Every big journey begins with the first step.”

“Because a Bet is a Bet”

In 1985 Rudy Barbazza was challenged by a friend to sell sunglasses to athletes. He took that challenge personally, as a project. Since then, that project became known around the world as Rudy Project.

He created Rudy Project with the firm conviction to improve the performance of athletes all over the world.  A love of progress, a passion for style and a keen eye for quality all contributed to give life to his Vision:  the world’s most technologically advanced sports eyewear.

Rudy Project works in cooperation with athletes from all fields, listening to what they want and need.  Rudy Project never stops researching to find the latest and best materials available to realize cutting- edge products.

Technically cool:  the two words that can best sum up this Vision:  the two words that best describe the DNA of each and every design carrying the brand Rudy Project.

Rudy Project designs and manufactures hi-tech sunglasses, goggles and helmets by applying the most advanced science, materials engineering and computer technology.

Rudy Project is known for providing the absolute best RX solutions for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts around the world. In addition to our unparalleled customer service standards, we pride ourselves on always being on the cutting edge of technological innovations for all of our products using two superior lens technologies: RP Optics™ and ImpactX™.

When passion is paired with courage, a masterpiece is born”

Conceived in the city of Treviso in the region of Veneto and deeply rooted in the land responsible for its inspiration, Rudy Project quickly became an international reality. As a leader in sports eyewear, it now produces and distributes sport sunglasses, prescription glasses, helmets, goggles and other sport accessories of the highest technical quality.

ADVANCED SCIENCE. DISTINCTIVE DESIGN. SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE

A sports eyewear leader for 30 years, Rudy Project is leading a race that knows no limits: the continuous pursuit of excellence in its materials, design and performance. Rudy Project is an established brand above all because of its performance sunglasses, RX solutions, as well as goggles and helmets of the highest technical level. It’s a company that knows sports extremely well, and listens to the needs of its players in order to ensure winning solutions. Since 1985, Rudy Project has been a worldwide leading company for products made in Italy, and with a new generation of leadership in the form of founder Rudy Barbazza’s own two sons, Cristiano and Simone, that success is sure to continue.

“We represent the top range of sporting eyewear and we manufacture everything 100% in Italy,” related Cristiano Barbazza, Chairman and CEO of the company. “To satisfy the needs of our athletes, we offer high-performance products which are highly customizable, such as our award-winning prescription solutions for athletes who need vision correction. Our customer base, who we manage to reach all over the world through optical and sports distribution channels, is often represented by very specific niche markets who recognize the value of our products.”

Established with the aim of improving the performance levels of athletes around the world, Rudy Project has had great success as a result of its constant investments in the development of new materials and technologies for lenses and frames. By making total quality in each product part of its core ideology, the brand has experienced rapid growth and adoption by pros in every field.

Love for progress, passion for style and attention to quality have given rise to an exclusive collection of technologically advanced sports accessories. “Technically Cool” is an elegant but powerful slogan that best expresses the DNA of every Rudy Project creation. Used by more than ten-thousand professional athletes in all sports, all over the world, it is no coincidence that Rudy Project has taken away countless awards and prestigious titles, such as Best Aero Helmet from Triathlete Magazine, Timeless & Breakthrough Design awards from Men’s Journal, 2x Gear of the Year from Outside Magazine, and Most Worn Helmet of the IRONMAN World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, for the last four consecutive years.

Many internationally-renowned champions choose Rudy Project to help them win,” says Simone Barbazza, Rudy Project marketing manager. “From champions in the Triathlon world such as Andy Potts, to golfer Edoardo Molinari and the biggest cyclists and teams, not to mention motorcycle stars like Cyril Despres, Bradley Smith, Alexis Espargaro, Scott Redding, Jenson Button, Dani Pedrosa and many others. In terms of quality, we do not compromise, so that we can satisfy the most demanding sports stars”.
