Tension + elasticity is the concept behind our newest tech suit, the women’s Closed Back Powerskin Primo. Made with arena Hyperforce™ – the first ever Tensoelastic fabric, this design provides compression as it stretches over body.

Not only does it allow the greatest range of motion in the water, but it will also make your racing day’s routine easier: the elasticity of the fabric makes it a high-compression suit that goes on in under 5 minutes.

Experience enhanced hydrodynamics thanks to the textile’s flow channelling that drives water smoothly over the surface of the swimsuit. Special taping acts like a pivot between the upper and lower body, ensuring both easy rotation and a stable core.

Now featuring a long torso for specific sizes, to make shoulder straps more comfortable than ever.

THE FIRST RACE SUIT WITH HYPERFORCE™ FABRIC

...

Arena’s Hyperforce™ fabric delivers the highest overall compression ever combined with ultimate comfort and improved hydrodynamics.
Thanks to the revolutionary tensoelastic properties of arena’s Hyperforce™ fabric, Powerskin Primo redefines compression by maximizing it with just minimal stretching.

Powerskin Primo is not just a compression suit, it’s something more: the first of its kind.
The fabric’s extraordinary elasticity allows for 50% more stretch than standard fabrics, enabling a range of motion never experienced before, while maintaining powerful compression.

In addition, the flow channeling texture on key surfaces makes it extremely hydrodynamic.

information

THIS SUIT WILL BE EASY TO PUT ON

Prepare to experience the magic of HYPERFORCE™​.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY​


POWERSKIN PRIMO IS DESIGNED TO BE EASY TO GET ON.​

Engineered with HYPERFORCE™, the world’s first tensoelastic fabric, POWERSKIN Primo is both our most compressive and most flexible suit.

Unlike traditional high-compression race suits, the time it takes to get into POWERSKIN Primo is not an indicator of sizing accuracy: its unique HYPERFORCE™ Fabric is highly elastic – allowing to be ready to race in as little as 5 minutes. Once on the body, the power of the HYPERFORCE™ fabric engages – delivering maximum compression while retaining an unprecedented level of flexibility and range of motion.​

NOTE: To ensure you’re getting the most out of your POWERSKIN Primo when trying on the suit for the first time, please watch our tutorial video. ​

HOW DO I KNOW I’M IN THE RIGHT SIZE?​​

Consult the size chart and ensure that your measurements align with the recommended size.​
Once on the body, POWERSKIN Primo will deliver our most powerful compression along with a new level of comfort and freedom of movement. ​

CAN I SIZE DOWN FOR MORE COMPRESSION?​​

The POWERSKIN Primo is a first-of-its-kind and will likely feel very different from any suit you’ve tried before. Confirm that your measurements align with the recommended size on the size chart.  Due to the exceptional power of the HYPERFORCE™ fabric, sizing down is not recommended as the extreme levels of compression may restrict freedom of movement and decrease the overall performance of the suit.

​Please note that individual experiences may vary. ​
