December Customer Events
December 2024
December might have been the last month of the year, but it sure didn’t slow down! From epic sprints in Bermuda to Aussie waters with over 600 swimmers. We stayed busy helping athletes and organisers absolutely crush it. Here is how we wrapped up the 2024 season:

December, 8th – 9th 2024
The month kickstarted in Birmingham, where the ATHX Games brought some serious heat. Picture intense challenges, grit, and a lot of sweaty determination. Athletes participated in a continuous 2.5hr fitness experience, racing to the top of the leaderboard to close out 2024 on a high.
For this functional fitness event we supplied temporary tattoos that not only made competitors look the part, but they stayed on through all the action. Typically used for athlete ID, our tattoos can also display sponsor and event logos, doubling as a tool to promote brands and the event itself. A win-win!

A mile in paradise? Yes, please. This fast-paced, competitive, and downright dreamy Butterfield Mile took place in Bermuda. The event served as trials for the Butterfield Mile which participants of the Bermuda Triangle Challenge are automatically entered in.
Our pin on race bibs helped athletes look sharp and stay identified throughout the race. They are an organisational life saver, ensuring everyone – from race officials to spectators can follow with ease. Keep a look out on January 17th – 19th, where we will be supplying more race bibs for the Bermuda Triangle Challenge.

The big one! New Zealand played host to the VinFast IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship, where the world’s best triathletes battled it out over a gruelling swim–bike–run course. This event showcased incredible talent and determination, with athletes pushing their limits in search of glory.
We provided temporary tattoos designed to keep athletes race-ready and officials on top of tracking. Made to endure the intense conditions of an IRONMAN event, our tattoos stayed put through each stage of the race. Durable, waterproof, and made for championship moments, these tattoos were up to the challenge. Check out all the results and highlights from this epic race here.

December 15th, 2024
Next up, Sportstiks products made their way to the golden shores of Dubai, for the spectacular Oceanman Dubai race. As the ultimate open-water swimming competition, Oceanman is known for its breathtaking locations – and Dubai’s edition was no exception. From sprints to marathon swims, the crystal-clear waters and sunny skies created the perfect stage for swimmers to dominate the Persian Gulf.
Our waterproof, lightweight, and highly visible temporary tattoos played a crucial role in making the event a success. These tattoos played a critical role in helping organisers manage participants effectively, whether they were in the water or crossing the finish line. Plus, they added a touch of style for competitors (and they looked great against that Dubai skyline).

December 21st, 2024
We closed the year Down Under, and honestly, what a way to end it! The Cockburn Masters 10k brought over 600 swimmers to Australia’s Coogee Beach for the perfect pre-Christmas swim. This festive event proved that December isn’t just about mulled wine and mince pies – it is also perfect for a bit of friendly competition.
Our temporary tattoos got their final test of the year, sticking with swimmers from start to finish (even in the Aussie heat!). Designed to stay visible and intact, they ensured organisers could track participants easily and added a professional finish to the event. Cockburn Masters was a brilliant way to wrap up 2024 – sunshine, smiles and festive vibes.

David Nell
Hi Chris,
Happy to inform you that I got the tattoos in time and they work brilliantly at our OWS event yesterday. All countries and participants were so impressed that we had them and I do believe that it did elevate the competition just that little bit.
Thank you for your efforts in getting the tattoos here on time. It’s really appreciated.
We will be in touch going forward and will share your details with the relevant disciplines that can make use of these tattoos.
