The second suit in our positive buoyancy range, the Fusion delivers targeted buoyancy and all-around flexibility, resulting in increased speed and comfort. Strategically placed higher buoyancy panels around the hips and thighs help align the heavier legs with the naturally more buoyant lungs in the chest. For swimmers having difficulty keeping their hips and thighs high in the water, the Fusion is the suit of choice. The 4mm chest panel delivers buoyancy designed to assist thigh and hip alignment.
- Positive buoyancy panels correct poor body position in the water, raising the legs reducing drag, resulting in a faster more efficient swim
- Dual zip flaps eliminate water entry and a streamline zip reduces drag
- Anatomical cut and shaped lower leg allows quicker exit from suit
- Low line collar maximises comfort
- Anatomical panel design minimises restriction
- High stretch large underarm gussets provide freedom of movement in the swim stroke
- Available in femme fit sizes WXS through to WLA.
- Meets USAT, ITU and WTC regulations for thickness and buoyancy.
Balanced buoyancy suits are specifically designed with triathletes in mind. Triathletes are often heavier in the legs due to the muscles developed through cycling and running, which can create drag if they are not able to maintain good body position. Balanced Buoyancy wetsuits like the Axis use higher buoyancy materials in the hips, thighs and lower leg. This increases the height of the lower body, lifting the legs and hips and putting the body in a more streamlined position, reducing drag and allowing for a more efficient swim stroke.
