"SailGP racing is intense. It really puts our gear to the test. Zhik is a great technical partner for us and we are looking forward to working with them to continue to develop high performance sailing gear for the sport," said Phil Robertson.

Piet Poelman, Zhik CEO adds, "I'm truly delighted for Zhik to be partnering with the Canada SailGP Team.

It's the perfect fit when we look at Zhik's heritage and vision for the future for our high performing technical apparel."
