Bauerfeind gets involved with the future of tennis, 05/31/2006
In Aalen, May 29 marked the start of this year’s Nike Junior Tour, a tennis tournament for children under 14 years old. For the first time, Bauerfeind worked in cooperation with local medical retail stores to support the events which take place across Germany. Products were displayed that are often used in tennis for prevention as well as post-injury.
Employees from the Schad medical retail store as well as experts from Bauerfeind provided interested athletes with advice and help, and introduced them to the digital foot pressure measuring system MediLogic and the new insoles from Bauerfeind, TRIactive. The 3-zone-insole was specially developed to meet the needs of active people and effectively supports healthy running. The modern insole offers a big advantage in that it offers three density zones with smooth transitioning combined with exact positioning of impact and relief zones. The targeted and regulated shock absorption protects the support and movement apparatus, reduces impact forces and delays musculature fatigue. The model “play”, that is specially suited for ball sports with quick changes in direction, effectively supports the foot during stopping and turning movements – ideal for tennis.
