The New York City Sports Commission has thrown its weight behind promoting the WSM Super Series competition scheduled for the WaMu Theater at Madison Square Garden on June 21.

WSM Super Series Managing Director Jesper Albansson told IronMind® that he was contacted by the New York City Sports Division and the resulting exposure has been tremendous.

Also in the news for Super Series is the deal they just signed with Svend and Lene Karlsen's Viking Power, which will supply "the official clothing line for WSM Super Series [in] the next upcoming contests. In Madison Square Garden 21st June 2008, the top international Super Series strongmen will appear in the gear for the first time," according to the statement, which also notes that "you will be able to buy selected items on the Viking Power website."
