Sailing apparel specialist Slam will be the official clothing supplier to the 2009 Audi Etchells Worlds sailing championship in March. The event will be hosted by Royal Brighton Yacht Club in the UK from March 5-14, 2009.

The manufacturer played a prominent role in the sailing events at the Beijing Olympics. Products such as its Area 51 jersey, made with fabric from important performance performance textile suppliers such as Dryarn, Maglificio Ripa and Eurojersey.

The technical qualities of the jersey, developed for the Italian Olympic team, has now attracted the attention of elite sailors from all parts of the world. The microfibre used, said to be the lightest in the world, still allows the product to give athletes maximum support.
