Our story
About Manta Squadron
Manta Squadron is formed by ultimate players to help teams grow bigger and better. Our journey starts with jerseys and shorts but we aim to become much more.
Why we do it
The ultimate flow has no friction
Buying kits is a big step for any team. We’ve been there several times. Sometimes it’s smooth, sometimes it can be a real pain. That shouldn’t be the case. That’s why the Mantas are here.
We want to support ultimate’s growth as a sport by minimizing aspects that cause friction. We are starting by modernizing the process of buying kits, as that is a process every team goes through however big and small.
Our journey is only beginning and we’re grateful for each team that decides to place their trust in our services and products. Together, we can Move as one.
