Officially Official - Kane Waselenchuk Signs with ProKennex

May 28th, 2008 by Geoff Thomsen

IMG_6350I had a chance to have a few conversations with both Mike Martinez and Kane Waselenchuk this past weekend at the 2008 USA Racquetball National Singles Championships, and both seem very excited to start the 2008-2009 season. Kane looked to be in great shape, and seemed back at home while mingling and signing autographs on the tournament scene at National Singles.  His new signature racquet, the Krowning Moment KM 175, had some great graphics, and will undoubtedly be in high demand this season.  He was also sporting some custom clothing, featuring Kane’s signature “GBWM” logo.
