ITT Flygt has been selected for the fourth time to provide the pumps that will power the Olympic whitewater kayaking course at the 2008 Summer Olympics.
In the challenging sport of competitive kayaking, there have been very few four-time Olympians. But when the summer Olympics come to Beijing in 2008, ITT Flygt's name will be added to the exclusive list.
ITT Flygt has been selected for the fourth time to provide the pumps that will power the Olympic whitewater kayaking course. Six Flygt-branded pumps will push up to 5,000 gallons of water per second through the 500-meter course, and push the world's best kayakers to the limits of their athletic capabilities. The pumps will mimic the unpredictability of whitewater in the wilderness and create the river-like conditions.
