Q&A with Yoon Seo Yeon
How did you become a BMX athlete?
I started BMX in 5th grade of elementary school. I began by following my older brother, Yoon Joon Soo (also a WaveWear Friends athlete). At first, I only did BMX, but when I entered high school, I started doing cycling as well.
Each sport has its own unique charm, which is why I compete in both disciplines.
What's your most memorable moment in sports?
During training, there was a jump ramp that I never thought I could clear. It seemed absolutely impossible, but when I actually tried it, I succeeded.
The sense of satisfaction and pride from accomplishing something I didn't think I could do was incredible.
What's your honest review after wearing WaveWear?
The protective gear I used to wear would slip down during repeated training movements or feel uncomfortable during certain motions.
WaveWear doesn't have those issues - the mobility is great, making it much more comfortable. I had knee pain from repeating the same movements during training, but that has significantly reduced as well.
Which product would you recommend the most?
The E2 Elbow Support is my favorite.
BMX and cycling actually use the upper body quite a lot, contrary to what many people think. When I wear the E2 Elbow Support, it protects me from injuries and feels comfortable during training.
