HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 27, 2002

GolfGear International Inc., ("GolfGear" or the "Company") (OTC BB:GEAR) reported that Rankmark.com declared the Company's 340cc Tsunami driver a "Winner" in its Match Play test results.

Cobra's SS Series joined the Tsunami as a Co-winner. Titleist's 975J Series driver finished third and TaylorMade's 300 Series finished fourth. Rankmark.com created a round robin tournament where 40 leading drivers were pitted against each other. The Final Four were played off with Co-Winners being awarded to GolfGear & Cobra.

Donald A. Anderson, GolfGear's Founder & CEO said: "This is another acknowledgement that the science and technology that we apply to the design and manufacture of our golf clubs is paying off. Our club is simply longer than any one else's, making it more fun to play and contributing to lower scores."

In related news Rankmark.com in its December 2002 newsletter ranked GolfGear's Tsunami 340cc driver first in its "Tops in Distance" category as a result of its latest independent test, "The Long & Short of It". In the same test GolfGear's Tsunami 340cc driver finished 4th overall. Men and women with handicaps ranging from 2 to 25 tested more than 40 drivers.

Last week the Company reported that it has received notification from the USGA that its newest Tsunami Titanium Drivers, the LD 360 and the LD 400 have passed the USGA's test for spring-like effect. These drivers are now permissible for play in rounds conducted under USGA rules, including rounds played for the purpose of posting a handicap score.

The newest Tsunami drivers, the LD 360 and the LD 400, feature a very unique contoured wave design on the sole plate that strengthens the entire shell to prevent energy loss, a speed slot toe that wraps around the entire club head to reduce drag and head flutter and a weight port designed to bring the static target weight of the club to within 1 gram. The drivers are manufactured with Graphite Design shafts made exclusively for GolfGear and specifically tuned for the Tsunami.

The Company plans to unveil its newest line of Tsunami Titanium Drivers at the PGA Show in Orlando, Fla. in January 2003.
