Peak Performance is one of the leading active wear manufacturers in the world, well known for its design and quality. With a deep involvement in skiing, cycling and golf, Peak Performance has now turned their attention to the latest Olympic discipline – BMX.

“Peak Performance has always been highly involved in sports where the limits of our technical products are tested. Therefore action sports like skiing and now BMX are very attractive as sponsoring projects for us”, says Anders Norin sponsoring manager at Peak Performance.
