Summer is finally here and the water is heating up - so chances are your next triathlon could be a non-wetsuit swim! Don't get caught out without a swimskin and lose precious seconds to your fellow competitors after all that training! Decrease drag and give yourself the best advantage in the water by wearing the Swimskin worn by 5 out of the last 8 Ironman World Champs in Kona.

The Orca RS1 Swimskin is perfect for non-wetsuit swims over any distance where zero water absorbency, and so increased buoyancy and speed counts. How does it do this? 

Our technologically advanced HydroSkin Dry water repellent coating has a zero rate of water absorbency over 3 hours - meaning natural buoyancy is retained due to the prevention of water entering the fabric. This results in the most hydrodynamic surface in the water - which means your swim speed is increased. And you have the bonus of exiting the water feeling dry as you head to T1!

Further enhancing the comfort and seamless movement through the water, the fully bonded seams make the RS1 Swimskin super flexible while also decreasing drag - allowing for even greater freedom of movement in your swim while you're going faster.
 
So what are you waiting for? Shop now so you too can speed through the water in your next non-wetsuit swim!

How to measure yourself

For best results, take your measurements with no clothing on

Place the measuring tape over the widest part of your chest.

Hold one end of the measuring tape in place and circle your chest, keeping the tape straight, until the tape reaches your starting point.

Get a book, a hand mirror and a pencil.

Take off your shoes and anything you wear on your head.

Look for a level surface to stand on with a smooth wall behind you.

Stand in front of the wall with your feet together.

Balance the book on your head and press it against the wall. Use the mirror to check that it is in a horizontal position and well centered. Mark the position of the top of your head on the wall with pencil.

Once the mark is made, step away and use a measuring tape to measure the distance from the ground to the mark you just made with pencil.

Step on the scale, without clothes or accessories, and write down your weight.
