blueseventy is excited to announce a partnership with IRONMAN champion Braden Currie of New Zealand. Currie recently finished in fifth place at last month’s IRONMAN World Championship crossing the finish line with the sixth fastest time in the event's 40-year history. “I’ve been wearing blueseventy suits for the last 12 months.

World #1 Alys Thomas’ Preparation for European Champs
Alys Thomas has sat proudly at the top of the 200m butterfly FINA world rankings since that stunning 2:05.45 gold medal winning swim at Australia’s Commonwealth Games in April. She’s now got a busy schedule at the Glasgow 2018 European Swimming Championships, but Sunday’s 200 fly is the focus for the 27 year-old Swansea, Wales based swimmer. Her swim on the Gold Coast was a breakthrough international medal that took years of patience and perseverance, including overcoming injures that have forced her to practice underwater skills relentlessly while arm injuries prevented her from swimming on the surface.
