  • FittingPros Launches Industry’s First Data-Driven Golf Club Fitting Directory

    FittingPros Launches Industry’s First Data-Driven Golf Club Fitting Directory

    New platform solves the “discovery problem” in the golf equipment market, allowing golfers to compare over 370+ club fitters by technology, pricing, and brand availability.

    JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Dec. 4, 2025 / PRZen / Golf Datatech reports that nearly 80 percent of serious golfers have now been custom-fitted, and the demand for unbiased information has never been higher. However, fitting quality varies wildly from shop to shop.

    FittingPros helps golfers distinguish between a professional fitting studio and a quick retail cart fitting, ensuring they know exactly what they are getting before they book.

    FittingPros is the first centralized source of truth for the fitting market. Through the platform, golfers can search club fitters using data points that were previously difficult to find:

    • Location: Search fitters by name, city, and state, and drill down into their specific offerings, like fitters in Scottsdale that carry Titleist and Fujikura shafts.
    • Technology: Filter shops by specific launch monitors, including TrackMan, Foresight GCQuad, FlightScope, and other major systems.
    • Pricing: View upfront costs for each fitting service (Driver, Irons, Full Bag, etc.) directly on their profile.
    • Brand Availability: Locate fitters that carry specific club and shaft manufacturers, including Titleist, Callaway, Mizuno, TaylorMade, Ping, Cobra, Srixon, and more.
    • Fitter Type: Clearly distinguish between Independent studios, big-box retailers, and national chains.

    “Most golfers understand how fittings can help their game, but many don’t know where to start or all the local options available,” said Jon Livingston, founder of FittingPros. “Our goal is to make the search simple. Whether you’re a scratch player or a higher handicap golfer, you should be able to confidently find a golf club fitter equipped to help you play better.”

    FittingPros is expanding nationwide and has already populated listings for major golf hubs, including Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Texas, Arizona, and California.

    The platform also serves as a marketing tool for the industry. Every fitter can list their shop for free, with optional upgrades available for added visibility within their city and state.

  • Dr. Alexander Eastman Returns to Suburban Hospital to Deliver Keynote on Crisis Leadership

    Dr. Alexander Eastman Returns to Suburban Hospital to Deliver Keynote on Crisis Leadership

    BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 25, 2025 / PRZen / Suburban Hospital, a member of Johns Hopkins Medicine and the state-designated trauma center for Montgomery County, proudly welcomed back nationally recognized trauma surgeon and federal medical leader Dr. Alexander L. Eastman to deliver the keynote address at its annual Critical Issues in Trauma Conference.

    Dr. Eastman, who began his medical journey at Suburban Hospital in the mid-1990s as a trauma resuscitation technician, returned to share lessons from over two decades of leadership in high-risk, high-pressure environments. His keynote address, titled “Crisis Leadership: Lessons from Our Nation’s Heroes,” explored the vital role of preparation, decision-making, and communication in navigating complex emergencies.

    Drawing on experience from trauma surgery, tactical law enforcement, disaster response, and federal emergency operations, Dr. Eastman highlighted the leadership traits that allow teams to withstand chaos and deliver under pressure. He emphasized the necessity of after-action reviews (AARs) and constant readiness, reminding the audience that “preparation is not glamorous, but it is the most meaningful work we do.”

    Currently serving as Senior Medical Officer for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Dr. Eastman continues to influence national clinical preparedness and emergency medical planning.

    The Critical Issues in Trauma Conference brought together trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, nurses, EMS crews, residents, and students from across the Washington–Baltimore region. This year’s focus included leadership in trauma care, inter-agency collaboration, and resource-constrained management, which aligned closely with Dr. Eastman’s multidisciplinary expertise.

    Beyond his operational leadership, Dr. Eastman is also a published scholar in trauma care and emergency response. His recent research includes a 2024 study on trauma systems at the U.S. border and a 2022 publication on leadership in mass-casualty incidents. He is a voting member of the Joint Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, helping shape national trauma guidelines.

    Dr. Eastman’s return to Suburban Hospital marked a full-circle moment in a distinguished career shaped by early exposure to the teamwork and resilience found in trauma care.

    “It is incredibly humbling to be back in the hospital where I first learned what this work demands,” he said. “The lessons I learned here have stayed with me through every chapter since.”

  • Kaltra Removes Size Barriers for Microchannel Coils with Fully Integrated Large-MCHE Production

    Kaltra Removes Size Barriers for Microchannel Coils with Fully Integrated Large-MCHE Production

    Kaltra’s new one-piece manifold technology removes former limits of large microchannel water coils, enhancing reliability for data centers, AHUs, and free cooling systems.

    ALTMUNSTER, Austria, Nov. 22, 2025 / PRZen / With the commissioning of a fully automated tube-processing station capable of cutting and punching the complete range of manifold tubes up to 2400 mm in length, Kaltra can now supply microchannel coils equipped with solid, one-piece manifolds. This capability is particularly valuable for large microchannel water coils, where seamless manifolds significantly increase structural robustness, reduce assembly time, and lower overall production cost.

    Beyond manufacturing efficiency, one-piece manifolds offer notable engineering advantages. By eliminating welded joints along the manifold length, the risk of leakage is reduced, pressure integrity is improved, and long-term reliability is enhanced.

    The launch of the tube-processing station represents the final step in Kaltra’s transition to a fully integrated production line for large microchannel coils. Earlier, the company expanded its manufacturing capabilities by installing large-conveyor CAB furnaces, enabling reliable brazing of oversized heat exchangers and paving the way for large-MCHE production.

    Historically, large-format microchannel water coils faced constraints in demanding environments—especially in data center applications, where they are used as AHU coils and free cooling coils, and where absolute reliability is essential. With the introduction of solid, one-piece manifolds and full-scale large-MCHE production technology, these limitations have now been fully removed.

    As a result, Kaltra’s customers gain access to a new class of high-capacity, highly reliable microchannel fluid coils suitable for the most demanding and mission-critical cooling applications.

    To date, Kaltra provides the widest nomenclature of tubes and components for microchannel water coils among all manufacturers. This allows the company to deliver tailored solutions that precisely match OEM requirements, ensuring optimal thermal performance, reliability, and integration across diverse applications.
