Billabong Australia’s Communication Manager Simon Barratt believes not only does “the wristbands look great but they are comfortable too”. Woven Wristbands are beginning to become the Identification solution of choice at major events, concert and festivals and are used to identify and separate the different participants such as performers, media, VIP’s and staff. Woven Wristbands have been proven superior for multiple day events to other styles such as Tyvek, plastic or vinyl due to there increased comfort level, look, durability, longevity and increased security features.
“Woven Wristbands are the ultimate in identification management and are virtually impossible to replicate as unlike other wristbands that are simply printed onto, woven wristbands are weaved on a large highly specialised machine. The wristbands are attached to the arm using a slide lock clip or aluminium tube which is crimped with a special tool which then ensures the wristband cannot be removed and transferred to someone else”. AAC ID Solutions Director Robert Borg explains.
The Billabong Pro Teahupoo runs from May 9th -20th and is widely considered one of the best events on tour due to the perfect but difficult and dangerous Teahupoo wave. Last year Brazilian Wildcard Bruno Santos defeated Mick Fanning, Taj Burrow and C.J Hobgood among others on route to the title.
