It is time to take your open-water swimming to a higher level! This elegant women’s Powerskin Storm wetsuit is the latest development on our popular Carbon wetsuit and is the result of 50 years’ research into hydrodynamics. It was designed by athletes for athletes to guarantee perfect buoyancy combined with the utmost comfort, flexibility, and heat insulation.
Our Storm wetsuit is made of 100% limestone Yamamoto SCS neoprene, a type of neoprene made from oil with reduced environmental impact. The different thicknesses of neoprene ensure maximum freedom of movement when swimming and optimum buoyancy. arena carbon fibre technology incorporated in the wetsuit keeps your body in an ideal position in the water, while the new neckline is designed to provide maximum comfort and no chafing. The special double-layer construction on the forearms allows a more efficient catch phase during the arm stroke and better sensations in the water. Thanks to the thinner and highly elastic neoprene around the wrists and ankles you can put on and take off the wetsuit quickly.
This women’s swimsuit has been approved for FINA, ITU, Ironman and USAT races.

SUPERIOR BUOYANCY & BODY POSITION

The laminated 4mm thick material of the POWERSKIN STORM is constructed using 3 layers of Yamamoto neoprene. The middle layer uses Airlock technology wherein the fabric is perforated to trap air during the lamination process. This allows for 30% more buoyancy over the standard 4mm neoprene, which results in an added lifting sensation for athletes while swimming. The Airlock neoprene is strategically placed on the core and upper thigh areas for an ideal body position, a smooth rotation in the water, and full flexibility.

UNIMPEDED RANGE OF MOTION

The STORM wetsuit exclusively uses Yamamoto's highest elasticity neoprenes - a mix of #39 and #40 quality. These are made out of Limestone, making the wetsuit extremely flexible and thus providing athletes with an unrestricted range of motion that helps to make each stroke feel natural and comfortable. These pliable neoprenes are strategically placed on the suit in varying degrees of thickness to provide liberated movement, with enough buoyancy to facilitate a hydrodynamic body position.

DURABLE & WATERPROOF CONSTRUCTION

All seams in the STORM wetsuit are held firmly together with 100% waterproof glue for maximum strength and durability. They are then double blind stitched together, passing through only half of the neoprene material to leave the surface of the fabric smooth and the thread invisible. The result is a secure, completely waterproof seam.

LIMESTONE NEOPRENE

Yamamoto neoprene uses Limestone as its core ingredient. This sedimentary rock, composed largely of minerals, calcite and aragonite, is developed using no oil at all.

ZERO CHAFE COLLAR

The STORM wetsuit features a uniquely designed low profile collar, with flattened edges at the neckline and a soft internal fabric which reduces friction when in contact with the skin and prevents chafing.

QUICK EXITS & TRANSITIONS

The ankle cuffs and wrist cuffs feature a thin Yamamoto neoprene designed for enhanced elasticity, making the wetsuit easy to get on and off during the quick transitional phases of a race or practice.

ENHANCED GLIDE

The Yamamoto neoprene is coated with Nano SCS (Super Composite Skin) to ensure zero water absorption. The micro-cell structure of this coating effectively repels water, equipping athletes with a reduced drag and an outstanding glide.

WORLD RENOWNED CORE SUPPORT

All Airlock neoprene is laminated internally with Powerskin Carbon Fiber woven fabric - a feature unique to arena wetsuits. This patent pending textile has proven to have a podium-worthy performance as it has been worn by the world's greatest swimmers. The secret to its success lies in the unparalleled core support it provides to athletes. An added bonus of the woven fabric is its quick-dry and hydrophobic quality, making it quickly ready for your next swim.

HEIGHTENED CATCH & FEEL OF WATER

The STORM wetsuit features a double lined ultra-thin panel of neoprene along the inside of the forearms to provide the swimmer with a heightened sense of feeling and awareness in the water, particularly during the catch and pull phase of the stroke.

APPROVED BY FINA, WORLD TRIATHLON (ITU), IRONMAN & USAT

Thanks to its elevated standards of excellence, the STORM wetsuit is the first contemporary high-end wetsuit to fulfill all requirements set out by FINA (International Federation of Swimming), World Triathlon (formerly ITU - International Triathlon Union), World Triathlon Corporation (WTC - owners of the Ironman series) and USAT (USA Triathlon). The STORM wetsuit is approved by FINA in construction, materials, and logo-branding allowance, and can therefore by used in all FINA sanctioned events at any level.
