The Athlex Float V2 wetsuit, made with Yamamoto neoprene, combines high buoyancy with high elasticity, resulting in a very balanced wetsuit for swimmers who need extra buoyancy to achieve the correct position in the water. This wetsuit’s distribution of thicknesses optimizes the swimmer’s position in the water, ensuring they can tackle triathlons with confidence. Plus, the use of highly elastic materials in the shoulders and arms and the removal of the graphics in the shoulder area means the Athlex Float V2 enables you to enjoy every stroke without restrictions.
Enjoy the comfort provided by our Fabric Gloves, included when you buy an Athlex Flex V2, which allows you to put your wetsuit on without damaging the material.
Characteristics:
- Comfort : With fewer panels on the arms and legs than other models the Athlex Float offers improved comfort.
- Buoyancy : The Yamamoto 5mm SCS neoprene front panel and the additional 5mm panel on the lower back provide high buoyancy without compromising elasticity. In addition, the 3mm thick panel, located on the chest, helps stabilize the body during the swim.
- Flexibility : 2mm 39cell SCS coated Yamamoto neoprene under the armpits, shoulders and arms combined with a soft Powerstretch lining offer excellent ease of movement and greater flexibility.
Technologies:
- Yamamoto : Yamamoto Corporation is the world's leading supplier of high performance neoprene. The Yamamoto brand is synonymous with quality, technology and innovation.
- 39 Cell : Yamamoto 39 cell is an extremely flexible neoprene that offers unmatched natural movement. 39 cell stretches up to 513% allowing the suit to effortlessly follow every movement of the body. In addition, zero water absorption and zero weight change mean one thing: more speed. With its perfect balance between buoyancy and flexibility, 39 cell is also a robust material that resists time and wear and represents the best neoprene available in its category.
- SCS : Acting as a film covering the neoprene, Super Composite Skin (SCS) has become the benchmark for neoprene treatment used in wetsuits as it reduces drag and increases the speed of gliding through the water. The micro-cell structure repels water molecules when in contact with the air and reduces contact resistance. Less drag = more speed.
- Hydrolite: HydroLite panels reduce transition times; the use of SCS combined with a special lining with minimal water absorption creates super smooth surfaces that facilitate the removal of the suit and allow you to save precious time in undressing.
- Infinity skin: the special Orca InfinitySkin lining is an integral component of Orca's high-end wetsuits. Made from a special ultra-stretch nylon and positioned in strategic points where maximum flexibility is needed, the InfinitySkin allows the wetsuit to accommodate and follow all the body's movements while swimming.
