HO Sports, a global leader in high-end water skis, is proud to announce the opening of its cutting-edge U.S. Facility, Syndicate Works, which will serve as the innovation epicenter for HO’s advanced development projects. The facility is strategically located in the heart of Arlington, Washington, right next to a lake, allowing for efficient product testing.
“We always wanted a factory right by the ski lake,” says Dave Wingerter, Sr. Director of Product Development. “We now have the ability to do much better R&D, take those ideas to the lake, ride the skis, and iterate.”
Syndicate Works is built on a commitment to simplifying ski design through focusing on the things that actually contribute to performance and getting rid of the rest. “Our goal is to put a lot of time, effort, and thought into making something that’s elegant, simple to build, and performs at the highest level.” - Dave Robinson, Works Manufacturing Manager.
With the Syndicate Works facility, HO Sports is ushering in a new era of product innovation that honors its storied past while embracing the future of watersports. “When you first walk in, there’s a whole different energy. You see the potential…you see the raw materials.” Says 2-Time World Champion Will Asher, “At that point, anything is possible.”
HO’s new Syndicate Works facility in Arlington Washington will be the birthplace of new ideas that will not only define competitive water skiing but will also expand the possibilities for the everyday skier.
