Surge Performance Training builds ground-based hydraulic resistance platforms (flagship products Surge 360 and Surge 180) that enable athletes to train with resistance across unlimited natural, standing movements. The devices offer over 50 total-body compound movements designed to engage multiple muscle groups, joints, and the core to improve strength, speed, endurance, balance, and flexibility. The company positions its products to deliver both cardiovascular and weight-training benefits through functional, ground-based resistance. Surge emerged from stealth in Austin, Texas and has attracted early customers including professional sports franchises, elite training centers, and celebrity user Robert Downey, Jr. Management includes CEO Michael Luther and co-founder/inventor Brent Brentham. The company announced a $750,000 seed investment and plans to use the funding for further product development, partnership opportunities, and expansion into select vertical fitness markets in 2013.
