Adding to its growing list of honors, the X1-PRO garnered a prestigious 2020 International Design Excellence Award (IDEA), one of the most sought-after awards in international design. In the category of sports, leisure, and recreation, the aquatic resistance training device won the bronze in recognition of its compact, easy-to-use design which offers significant advances over conventional swim training methods, including adjustable resistance settings and real-time stroke corrections.
Inspired by 7-time gold medalist David McCagg, the X1-Pro was developed in partnership with ROBRADY design.
GMX7’s X1-PRO also won the Bob Gillett award for most innovative product at the 2019 ASCA World clinic.
