Mallory Owen
Inventor and Manufacturer
Mallory Owen, inventor, manufacturer and sports
enthusiast invented the Profelt™
Floor Hockey Puck.
Although
he has been manufacturing
the Profelt™ Floor Hockey Puck since 1990, the story started many years earlier.
As a kid Mallory loved ice hockey and its gymnasium
version, gym hockey or floor hockey. If there was a game of floor hockey in the school
gym, Mallory was usually playing. The only drawback to gym hockey was the
plastic pucks, which were difficult to control and resulted in some pain
for the players.
As an adult, he found Floor Hockey to be an
excellent team sport for fun and fitness. He and his friends played a very
competitive game. They enjoyed challenging each other’s speed and
skills. The only thing lacking was a puck that allowed a high level of
performance and safety.
The floor hockey pucks on the market were simply
not good enough. They were too heavy or too light or too soft or too
hard. Mallory’s, innovation and creativity were called upon. He went
about developing the best floor hockey puck to meet the needs of his team mates and the game
they loved to play. Over a number of seasons and after many trials of
different materials, the Profelt™
Floor Hockey Puck was created.
His team mates said it was the best floor hockey puck ever. This meant it
was the best gym hockey puck ever.
