Natural rubber starts with a pretty simple advantage- the tree does most of the work for nearly 30 years! 

Our Yulex  certified natural rubber from smallholders and cooperatives are grown in rain-fed systems (green water only) — no irrigation drip lines, no intensive water infrastructure, and no diversion of water from rivers.

Compared with water and input-intensive crops such as cotton and hemp, the land and water footprint looks very different. And compared with petrochemical-based materials such as neoprene and geoprene, you’re starting from a renewable, plant-based feedstock rather than fossil carbon that alone reduces CO2e emissions by at least 80%.

And the end result performa where it matters-  in the water 🌊 (footwear, accessories +++ too). 

That’s what makes natural rubber the best biobased material for wetsuit foam — lower-impact inputs without losing sight of performance.

Ironman 70.3 Hawaii

The heat had other plans. Dehydration hit hard, cramps followed on the run, and it turned into a long day of survival. Not the race I trained for, but I’m proud to have crossed that finish line.

Some days you race the course, other days you race yourself. On to the next one.

Huge thank you to my sponsors and supporters. @eatpreptmeals for keeping me fueled with the best meal prep in the game, Emerald Water for providing an incredible experience in Hawaii with family and friends, and @dr.kylewade (Body100PT) for helping keep me healthy through training, racing, and the inevitable bumps along the way. And a special thank you to my friends and family who made the trip out to support me. Couldn’t do it without you all.

Ironman Hawaii 70.3 recap 

The heat humbled me. Started cramping late on the bike and spent most of the run trying to stay ahead of it, but I kept moving and got it done.

Big thanks to the person who gave me salt pills when I needed them most. Grateful to have finished and excited to come back for redemption.
