Monica Altman Wins the National Lady Bass Angler Association tournament on Kentucky Lake Friday July 13th, 2012

And here's how she says 2BKool helps her:

"2BKOOL has been absolutely a WONDERFUL solution for me. I am a professional tournament angler, exposed to all outdoor conditions. Especially the heat! I have had heat exhaustion at least 3 times in the last few years.

With 2BKOOL jerseys, they allow me to concentrate on fishing and not my body temperature. The 2BKOOL jerseys makes my skin feel 5-10 degrees cooler, plus the long sleeve jersey protects my skin from the sun's UV rays. 5-10 degrees makes all the difference in the world when you are approaching heat stress or exhaustion.

If you really want to cool down, I like to take an extra jersey with me, place in a Ziploc bag, keep it in my boat cooler and switch out jerseys while on the water...That really feels great on a hot day! The 2BKOOL shorts and longer pants work the same way.

I've experimented with the jerseys and also use them not only when it's hot but also during winter months, as an extra layer of protection. Wearing the 2BKOOL jersey under another shirt or jacket feels nice and cozy. It keeps my body heat locked in. I would highly recommend all of these products for anyone, whether you are an athlete, simply working out in the heat and cold or looking for that extra edge as a tournament angler."

When the Fazzt team prepares and races for the Indy 500 trophy this month, driver Alex Tagliani and his crew will have help in defeating that continual nemesis in racing – heat exhaustion. Under their fire-suits, the team will be wearing 2BKool apparel with its unique phase-change technology especially developed to combat heat.

Alex Tagliani first tested the 2BKool system at the Kansas Indy car round and “absolutely loved it!”

Indy cars and other racecars with space and weight limitations for carrying water-cooled systems are ideally suited for 2BKool products. No tubing or plumbing with potential for failure are required – just wearing the lightweight and comfortable underwear provides body climate control.

Microcapsules inserted into the base-layer fabric absorb heat and allow the body’s own perspiration to cool them. The microcapsules absorb heat at a greater rate than other sweat-wicking fabrics can transfer heat away from the skin surface. 2BKool apparel is suited for all extreme sports and activities where heat is an issue. In addition to the fire-resistant products, a new line for sports that do not require protection against fire is soon to be released. 2BKool is designed and manufactured in a historic factory in South Boston, Virginia.

"We are still flying the colors! It's only a matter of time before 2BKOOL sees the podium in ST. Thanks again for the awesome product."

"88 degrees with Miami humidity and no drink bottle. I ran a full stint and had no heat fatigue. Unreal!"

“At the 2009 Rolex 24 at Daytona, temperature ranged during the race from 40 degrees to 75 degrees. The morning and evening were very cold and the afternoon became very warm. Our all-black fire suits are double layer and I wore 2BKOOL fire-retardant garments under my suit as well as a balaclava under my helmet. I noticed that as other crew members were putting on sweatshirts and jackets when it was cold and taking them off for the many pit stops and then again as the temperature rose, I stayed very comfortable in just my fire suit and 2BKOOL garments. From the damp cold of the night to the heat of two very sunny days, 2BKOOL was great. The garments are comfortable with no restriction to my movement. I am looking forward to wearing 2BKOOL shirts in my upcoming marathons. The races begin in the morning when it is cold, but by the time you have run several miles your body really heats up. As effectively as 2BKOOL worked for me in the Rolex 24 at Daytona, I know it will be great to run 26 miles in.” – Bob Black, Fueler

Max Crawford, team owner of Howard Boss Pontiac Crawford:

“I was amazed. At Miller Motorsports Park in Utah, we ran a nine hour race. I stood on a pit wall in 90 degree heat , wearing a 3-layer fire suit, in black,  and I never got hot. I couldn’t believe it! Our entire crew felt the same way. This is a great product.”

Terry Francey (Refueler):

"I'm the fuel bottle man and I have to wear a fire suit all day. I was cool all day. It stayed consistent. It was excellent. The first time it was pre-cooled; the second time I didn't have a chance to pre-cool it and it still worked. It's a winner. The 2BKOOL was comfortable and kept me cool all day."

"Proper core temperature is critical in maintaining concentration. 2BKOOL's products have kept me cool through some situations where concentration was critical to survival."

"I have been driving these HOT son of a ******* for a lot of years and one 97 degree day I got my "KOOL" suit. UNREAL!"

"I put it on before a 45 minute practice session and never unzipped my suit the rest of the evening. It is hard to explain...You don't know you have it on, other than you are cool. I'm in!!!"
