Hydro Flask Announces New Partners
Hydro Flask is excited to welcome its newest Team Hydro athletes and outdoor industry partners, coinciding with the launch of its Journey Series™ insulated hydration packs, designed to revolutionize cold water experiences for mountain bikers.
Professional mountain bikers Mark Matthews and Hannah Barnes join Hydro Flask industry partners Ladies AllRide and Rim Tours Mountain Bike Adventures in promoting the brand’s mission to inspire a joyful, active lifestyle through the newly released Journey Series, which launched on April 1. The collection’s 10 and 20 Liter hydration packs keep water chilled for more than 4 hours, delivering hands-free cold hydration that mountain bikers can enjoy without stopping or slowing down.
“We’re proud to join forces with these top athletes and great mountain biking organizations to introduce the Journey Series to mountain biking enthusiasts everywhere,” said Yiorgos Makris, Director of Marketing at Hydro Flask. “As Hydro Flask continues to expand its high-performance innovations and worldwide presence, we’re committed to aligning our brand with partners that embody Hydro Flask’s core values. Mark and Hannah are the perfect ambassadors to spread our passion for adventure and the outdoors, while our friends at Ladies AllRide and Rim Tours will help bring the Journey Series to bike communities across the country.”
As the newest members of Team Hydro, Matthews and Barnes join the brand’s lineup of more than 20 action sports and active lifestyle ambassadors. Both professional riders will share stories of inspiration through their social media channels while creating awareness for the brand.
“I am so happy & proud to join the Hydro Flask family,” Barnes said. “This is a company I have admired for a long time. I love their whole ethos, mission to get rid of single use plastics and overall enthusiasm to promote a good thing. Everyone needs a durable, reusable, reliable, go-anywhere, perfect temperature partner for every adventure!”
In partnership with Ladies AllRide and Rim Tours Mountain Bike Adventures, Hydro Flask will outfit professional mountain bike instructors with Journey Series hydration packs for group trail rides.
