Sound Bites

  • "Our swim cap looks kind of looks and feels like a swim cap people have grown up with. It's made out of a premium silicone. It's kind of smooth. It doesn't pull your hair when you put it on or take it off, but it's Secret Sauce, which is patented."
  • "Our cap, because of the safety system inside, has no wrinkles, which swimmers call drag. And if you're gonna shave your body and wear a $500 tech suit, you don't want to be swimming with a cap that has wrinkles in it."
  • "The flimsy silicone or latex caps, they can just slide over the hammerhead and you just pull it down tight and you still have that smooth surface. So everybody wins."
