Origins

Go Fast Sports was founded to market a line of t-shirts and accessories worldwide, targeted at skydivers. In order to reach other markets, Go Fast energy drink was created and Go Fast Sports expanded to Go Fast Sports & Beverage Co.

In 1992 Troy Widgery was on the World Class Competitive Skydiving Team, Airmoves, and the team was training for the U.S. Skydiving Championship. The team was on top of the world, with high expectations of winning the upcoming championship, when their skydiving plane crashed during a training session in California. Troy was one of a few survivors, and sixteen people died.

In 1996, and still "Going Fast", Troy continued his work with skydiving teams, and started the company "Go Fast Sports" to represent the lifestyle he and numerous sports enthusiasts live! Go Fast Sports focused on producing a line of t-shirts and accessories, and establishing dealerships around the world. For the next four years, Go Fast concentrated mainly on the skydiving market without expanding the market base.

Beginning in 2001, because of demand from consumers, Go Fast began entering into other sports-interest markets with phenomenal acceptance. These additional markets now include skiing, snowboarding, jet skiing, wakeboarding, triathlon, mountain biking, road cycling, auto racing, B.A.S.E. jumping, moto-x and many more. Everyone wants to Go Fast!

An energy drink seemed to be the perfect fit, and Go Fast wanted to create a product with the best ingredients, taste and performance in the category. Thus Go Fast energy drink was created in conjunction with a team of specialists that created the perfect blend of ingredients, and Go Fast Sports & Beverage Co. grew into a new beginning.

Today, Go Fast remains dedicated to supporting people around the world who have a passion for living life a little on the edge - by creating brand-name apparel and products that speak to their audience's adventurous lifestyle and attitude.

Go Fast was developed to give you a longer, smoother, more sustained energy boost, without the "jittery crash" that is associated with other energy drinks.
