Fro Systems - Adrenaline Clothing Company, who sponsor amongst other people GP star Tai Woffinden, GB international Ben Barker and Coventry star Adam Roynon will be supplying Paul with racing gloves for use during the 2013 season.
The deal came about when one of Pauls existing sponsors, Swerve Racewear, mentioned cycle speedway to Fro Systems when they were doing a motor speedway deal and they were keen to take on a high profile cycle speedway rider and Paul was their rider of choice.
Paul said "With Australia on the horizon, anything that helps with overall racing costs is a major boost, so knowing that I won't be paying out for pairs of gloves at £25 a time will be a big saving and that money can go in my Aussie fund".
