Rudy Project North America, exclusive distributors of Italian-made sunglasses, and the 30 distributors of Rudy Project around the world celebrated the achievements of the global roster of athletes that won two dozen medals in South Korea this past February. All in all, Rudy Project athletes the world over won 25 medals total, with 10 gold, 11 silver, and 4 bronze medals across multiple disciplines. If Rudy athletes were their own country, the total would have made Rudy Project the fourth ranked nation in terms of total medal count. More impressive, Rudy Nation would have edged out the United States, Netherlands and South Korea for total number of gold medals for a spot at number four.

Over 65 athletes sported Rudy Project’s technically cool eyewear and helmets, heralding from Norway, Italy, United States, South Korea, Canada, and Estonia, to name a few. Rudy Project sponsored athletes competed in a number of winter disciplines, from biathlon to combined Nordic, cross country skiing, speed skating, and freestyle snowboarding.

Speed skater Ted Jan Bloeman, who took two medals home to Canada, came into the world-class competition fresh from claiming the world speed record in the 50k distance.
