Yana Klochkova '03 • 2-Time Gold Medalist, Sydney • 2-Time World Record Holder (400 IM LC and SC) Hans Fassnacht '72 • Silver Medalist, Munich • Former 2-Time World Record Holder Since 1985, TYR has been a global force. Not an acronym. According to Norse mythology, TYR was the God of warriors and deity among all athletes – a fierce competitor revered by his friends and foes alike. If you’re competitive by nature, like us, you can relate. Historically speaking, TYR is also a global brand whose roots stem from swimming. Not just within America, but from abroad. For example, our Vice President of International Sales is Hans Fassnacht – a 2-Time World Record holder and Silver Medalist in the 1972 Munich Olympics. Even our current roster of elite athletes is made from an international contingency, such as 2-Time Olympic Gold Medalist, Yana Klochkova. Since the day we firmly planted our flag into the ground, TYR has set the benchmark when it comes to innovative competitive swimwear, swimming technologies and multi-sport apparel. At TYR, we live and dream swimming. It’s in our DNA. And that’s the kind of passion and commitment that goes into each and every one of our suits and accessories.
