The Powerskin Thunder wetsuit was designed to offer what beginners in open water swimming need and to ensure an optimal solution to the demands of racing.

This wetsuit uses exclusively Yamamoto elastic neoprene. The extraordinary flexibility of this material and the strategic distribution of the different thicknesses of the neoprene translates into maximum freedom of movement, favoring the natural gesture of the athlete while swimming.

Completing the design are cutting-edge details, such as a flat-edged collar that prevents chafing, 100% waterproof invisible double stitching and an improved zip closure for a perfect seal.

The Powerskin Thunder wetsuit is approved for all major racing circuits, including FINA, ITU, Ironman and USAT.

Characteristics :

Maximum flexibility : The THUNDER wetsuit uses exclusively Yamamoto elastic neoprene. The extraordinary flexibility of this #38 neoprene translates into maximum freedom of movement, favoring the natural gesture of the athlete while swimming. This very flexible material is strategically positioned on the wetsuit with various thicknesses (from 2mm to 4mm) to ensure the minimum possible friction in the water. The thicker areas ensure greater buoyancy where you need it most, for an efficient position in the water in terms of hydrodynamics.

Wear-resistant : All THUNDER wetsuit welds are made with 100% watertight glue, to offer you maximum wear resistance and long life. They are also reinforced with an invisible double stitching, which involves only half of the fabric and leaves the surface of the wetsuit completely smooth and seamless. The result is a perfectly sealed joint.

Reduced environmental impact : Yamamoto neoprene is made from limestone. This sedimentary rock is mainly composed of minerals, calcite and aragonite and therefore no petroleum is used in the processing of this material. The energy saved in this phase reduces the environmental impact of this product, compared to other wetsuits on the market.

Zero neck chafing : The THUNDER wetsuit has a smooth collar with flat edges and a soft inner lining, designed to reduce chafing against the skin.

Quick to put on and take off : The wetsuit features thin Yamamoto neoprene at the wrists and ankles, designed to offer maximum elasticity, making the wetsuit easy to put on and take off during quick transition phases in racing or training.

Better glide in the water : Yamamoto neoprene is coated with Nano SCS (Super Composite Skin), to ensure zero water absorption. The microcell structure of the coating is perfectly water-repellent, allowing athletes to swim with less friction and glide perfectly in the water.

FINA, ITU, IRONMAN and USAT approved : Thanks to its high standards of excellence, the THUNDER wetsuit is the first modern high-end wetsuit that meets all the requirements set by FINA (International Swimming Federation), World Triathlon (formerly ITU-International Triathlon Union), World Triathlon Corporation (WTC - owners of the Ironman circuit) and USAT (USA Triathlon). The THUNDER wetsuit is fully FINA approved in terms of construction, materials and logo placement and can therefore be used in any level of competition belonging to the FINA circuit.
