Blueseventy Womens Helix Swimsuit
The culmination of years of testing and research, the helix is simply our finest suit ever. For 2008 we introduce TST, torsional stretch technology, further isolating the shoulder panels from the body of the suit, to improve flexibility. Combined with the existing quick exit legs, reverse zipper and multi-stretch cuffs, the helix improvements result in uncompromising comfort and performance. In 2007 this was the suit of choice for athletes in the pro ranks, and based on their feedback, has led to enhancements that will not change that perception.The introduction of TST (torsional stretch technology) - technically superior Yamamoto materials are integrated into our advanced helix pattern, and mechanically decouple the arms from the rest of the suit. When you stretch into the stroke you are normally pulling against the other panels of the suit. In the helix TST, the TST panels work to 'fl oat' the arm so it doesn't have to work against the body of the suit. Larger underarm gusset has been anatomically aligned for better movement. Thinner 1.5 mm arms with a more malleable jersey improves flexibility. Swim cuffs feature internal silicon print to reduce water entry in the sleeve and reduce movement of the cuff against the skin. Ribbed rubber behind the knee reduces compression resistance during knee flexion when running. Further reduction in collar bulk to reduce abrasion and assist in movement of the head when sighting during swimming. A wider range of women's sizes existing features |
