In-Game Recovery for Athletes
The Narwhals™ are a palm cooling device for accelerating recovery during practices and competitions, and avoiding heat stress.
Accelerate heart rate recovery during timeouts
Cool down quickly during breaks without removing gear
Extend work capacity during high intensity work
Reduce perspiration and loss of electrolytes
If you’re not thinking about thermoregulation, you’re leaving points on the table.
As ambient and core body temperatures increase, performance declines. By cooling between bouts of effort you can sustain a higher level of play longer.
Avoid heat stress
Recover heart rate faster
Increase work volume
A more powerful way to cool down is within reach
Our palms are natural radiators for the body. They contain special vasculature for efficient offloading of heat.
By holding something cool (not cold), with good thermal conductivity, and a mechanism for avoiding thermal barriers, you quickly remove excess body heat, accelerating recovery and improving performance.
The Narwhals provide portable cooling that will last entire games and long practices
Last for 2+ hours even in hot environments
Easy to swap Cool-not-Cold packs for extended use
No moving parts, batteries, or charging
High thermal conductivity & continuous heat removal
Maintains correct temperature (~55°F / 13°C)
How Palm Cooling Impacts Athlete Recovery
Palm cooling improves physical performance by delaying fatigue and accelerating recovery. In this article, we explore how palm cooling impacts an athlete's ability to recovery during games and in training.
