Sales Director, Rebel Crystal Division

For over a decade Rebel Athletic has been known as the couture disruptor of the cheer and dance uniform world built on a simple obsession: more sparkle better fit and zero compromise. Out of that obsession and out of necessity we spent five years engineering something the industry had never seen: our own patent-pending hotfix flatback blind tests against Swarovskis own top-of-the-line Xirius crystal coaches and gym owners preferred our crystal nine times out of ten.

What started as solving our own problem is now ready to become its own business. We are launching the Rebel Crystal Division to bring SuperNova and Venus crystals to distributors fashion houses dance studios and every brand across North America who refuses to settle for ordinary sparkle. Were looking for the first person to build this division own this category and put their name on what we believe will become one of the most exciting new brands in the crystal and rhinestone industry.

• In a blind selection challenge 9 out of 10 coaches and gym owners preferred SuperNova over Swarovskis top-tier Xirius crystal.
• Built and durability-tested for the demands of elite competition intense routines and stunts not just runway shine.
