BODY/CHEST
> Using
Yamamoto neoprene with SCS coating we have optimal buoyancy which means
less body in the water therefore less wetted surface area, and a faster
overall speed through the water. Water is 1000 times denser than air,
and has a drag coefficient 10 times greater than air. Buoyancy is the
ultimate component of speed.
> SCS coating which drastically reduces water resistance/friction (f=0.032)
> 2XU have engineered the Comp 1 Sleeveless wetsuit with the optimum
chest/hip buoyancy balance. Synchronising hip and chest buoyancy
through the front panel cut Without this formula hip or chest
submersion can occur throwing out your level body position and your
stroke, bringing into play both inefficient technique and the usage of
untrained muscles , bringing on quicker fatigue.
> The hydrodynamic flow over the front of the wetsuit is interrupted
by seams, so 2XU have a one piece design from the neck to the knee to
reduce drag and increase speed through the water.
ROLLBAR
> Industry first Rollbar region improves the buoyancy in the core of
the wetsuit. Better body position is delivered through maintained
buoyancy when the body rolls off the front panel. This ultimately
maintains higher body position (speed in water) and derives power from
better positioned hips - enhancing the pull phase of the stroke.
LEGS
> The upper legs (region of seamless front panel) are created using
Yamamoto neoprene with optimised buoyancy with SCS coating.
> The lower legs have a reduced neoprene 3mm panel structure to help
with the run up the beach, and to remove the wetsuit with more ease.
> Adjustable length leg to customize fit for your kicking style.
Trim the leg length back to reduce buoyancy and lower your feet for
more kick power, or save your legs for the bike and run with a full
flotation suit to the ankle.
> Quick release leg cut for faster suit removal.
BACK PANELS (MAIN LATERAL AND LOWER BACK)
> Fundamental panels many other wetsuit brands underestimate. 2XU
have engineered a back panel structure which is strong enough to
contain the rigid zip, withstanding the punishment of constant use, and
allow the zip to float with body movement. This is achieved by the one
piece floating zip panel, no seams so less restriction.
SEAT AND CROTCH PANELS
> These two panels are all about maximising buoyancy, while having
an anatomical fitting shape so water does not gather in this region. An
ill fitted suit will allow the back up of water and increase in weight.
> Utilising a lining which will hold its shape and support in a region where most of the power in the stroke can come from.
> In utilizing materials which compress the muscles in the buttock
and higher leg greater muscle stability reduces fatigue and allows the
muscle to be primed for greater power output.
> Crotch panel also utilizes slightly thinner thickness to enhance
the run up the beach by allowing more flexibility without sacrificing
the suits buoyancy.
NECK PANEL
> The neckline must balance tension perfectly to minimize both water intake and chaffing.
> This neckline solution is completed with an adjustable fastening
collar system, allowing you to personalize the fit and maintain the
perfect tension.
> Seamless front construction so less drag.
> Only one seam on the inside allows less risk of chafing.
INVISIBLE ZIP
> The 2XU zip is manufactured from reliable light and strong
material, positioned behind the back panel lapels to reduce water
intake and streamlined for speed.
