AFFORDABLE EMERGENCY ID WRISTBAND LAUNCHED IN HAWAII

Stylish Silicone Band Could Save Lives

Lahaina, Maui, HI. May 2008 ? A new Emergency Identification Wristband from Xtreme Sports ID hit the surf in Hawaii last month, bringing an affordable, stylish, and much needed safety option to athletes in extreme sports.

Extreme athletes, weekend warriors, and concerned parents alike can now purchase an Emergency Identification Wristband that provides access to detailed information about the wearer.

The process is simple. The user locates the unique 8-digit ID number on their wristband, clicks on the ?Register? link on the company?s website, and then follows the step-by-step guide to enter their ID number and vital information. Details like name, emergency contact numbers, allergies, and medical history are instantly accessible with a call to the toll free number.

?We wanted to create something cool and functional, but also easy to use and very affordable,? says Bryan Console, co-founder of Xtreme Sports ID. ?At some point, everyone?s out there solo. Having some additional peace of mind can go a long way.?

The ?Where Am I? feature on the company?s website may be the most widely used. Allowing the wearer to leave notes for friends and family containing details such as flight information, directions, or simply the remote location of the day?s hike.

The durable silicone wristband is available for purchase online at www.xtremesportsid.com and also at select retailers across the country. For $8, the wearer receives the wristband and a one year subscription to the interactive service; the annual renewal fee is $5. It is currently available in four sizes (including children?s sizes) and three colors: Desert Camouflage, Green Camouflage, and Pink Camouflage.
