GLEN MILLS, Pa., June 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Unequal® Technologies, the leading provider of customized, concealed sports protection, has partnered with the GASGAS 360 Race Crew to outfit its EnduroCross and Trialcross athletes competing in EnduroCross this June – and at multiple extreme off-road motorcycle competitions throughout 2014. GASGAS 360 riders will be decked out in the Unequal MAXX for head protection, Cobalt shirt for torso protection, Viper girdle for hip and thigh protection, Ultrathin insoles and custom elbow and shin guards.
Stephen Foord (#63), 2014 King of the Motos team champion, leads the 360 Stunts Race Crew into the 2014 Men's EnduroCross final on June 6.
