CALGARY—Canada’s ski jumping athletes will be ready to fly closer to achieving their performance goals this year, thanks to a unique partnership struck on Monday between Firefly Recovery and Ski Jumping Canada.
A leader in innovative athletic recovery devices, Firefly Recovery will assist Canada’s top leapers with staying fresh while battling through the rigors of high-performance training and competition by supporting daily recovery and reducing travel-related fatigue through its technology.
The small and portable Firefly Recovery Device speeds up the body’s natural healing by increasing whole body blood flow, which helps accelerate recovery, reduce muscle soreness, and improve overall performance on the hill.
“In the sport of ski jumping, finishing on or off the podium at the elite level can be determined by inches,” said Drew Edwards, general manager, Ski Jumping Canada, who added Ski Jumping Canada is committed to delivering the resources and tools athletes in the program require to deliver optimal performances. “Training and travelling at the elite level put significant demands on the body which in turn puts greater emphasis on the importance of recovery to ensure athletes are fully prepared and fresh each day. Firefly Recovery will play a critical role in helping us achieve these goals, so we are thrilled to have them on our team.”
Tailoured to meet the unique needs of high-performance athletes, Firefly Recovery accelerates recovery up to three times faster, reduces muscle soreness, and improves muscle performance—enabling athletes to recover more efficiently and return to peak performance sooner.
Firefly Recovery’s revolutionary technology is currently incorporated into the recovery and travel routines of more than 1,000 professional and collegiate teams, in additional to Olympians and Paralympians across several different sports.
“We’re proud to partner with Ski Jumping Canada to provide their athletes with our advanced recovery technology,” said Lauren Campbell, chief marketing officer, Firefly Recovery. “Ski jumping requires extraordinary endurance, intense strength and ski to support athletes in flying through the air. Our devices are designed to support daily recovery, reduce travel-related fatigue and help these elite jumpers maintain their peak performance throughout their demanding World Cup season.”
As part of this partnership, Firefly Recovery will work closely with sport science staff at Canada’s national training centres in Vancouver and Calgary to integrate their recovery technology into the athlete’s travel plans. This includes providing educational resources and personalized support to help athletes and staff maximize the benefits of Firefly Recovery devices.
The partnership benefits will also extend to Ski Jumping Canada’s entire membership base, providing discounts to ski jumpers throughout the pathway across Canada.
Firefly Recovery is proud to make their recovery solutions more accessible to athletes and customers across Canada. Products are now shipping directly from within Canada, which allows orders to be fulfilled and delivered faster, reduces shipping costs and eliminates surprise duties or fees at checkout.
