ABOUT ylon-a :

Theo-Patrick Fourcade, member of the HONG KONG team and old member of the French Teams of Finswimming and Apnea, is passionately fond of aquatic sliding. “I have taken part in competitions with the elite of those two sports all over the planet, and have experienced the particular atmosphere created by this tribe on each meeting. Therefore I wanted to gather these sportsmen and their state of mind around one identifiable trademark. My wish for sharing the same language, the same sliding and the same fun, brought me to imagine and conceive YLON-A. The raison d'être of YLON-A is to disseminate the inspiration of water sports through identity products and services (www.ylon.com). Since 2000, YLON-A appears on international competition meetings. It’s known and worn by initiates in more than 40 countries. ”

YLON, means “A”quatic inspiration. The inspiration is when a man in the heat of the moment is perfectly harmonized with the natural environment in which he evolves. During a sporting performance, it’s the moment when the athlete carries out easily a perfect technical figure, with high flexibility and extraordinary power. What the sportsman can feel during the movement, the supernatural pulse which enables him to control his gesture, his body, his spirit. This supreme conscience of himself that brings the second breath, that’s the inspiration.
