Neoprene Buoyancy Shorts 'The Next Step' 3/2mm

Introduction

The shorts are made from top quality Yamamoto smoothskin neoprene and are stitched and bonded just the same as a triathlon wetsuit. They are designed using 2mm neoprene down the centre and 3mm neoprene down the sides. The 2mm provides the additional buoyancy whilst the 3mm side panels complement this by promoting hip rotation through each stroke.

What makes this product different

The shorts are made from a combination of 3mm Yamamoto #39 SCS on the front and back panels and 5mm Yamamoto SCS Aerodome on the side panels which offers 30% more buoyancy than standard neoprene.

The #39 SCS material gives a softer, lighter and more flexible fit, whilst the Aerodome aids the athlete with more buoyancy and hip rotation. This is suitable, in particular, for the heavy legged swimmers looking to refine their technique.

The SCS coating ensures minimal drag through the water and the Aerodome material features air bubbles between neoprene layers offering 30% more buoyancy than standard neoprene. The 3mm on the front and back provides the additional buoyancy whilst the 5mm side panels complement this by promoting hip rotation through each stroke. There is also a softer and higher stretch inner lining to improve the comfort. The shorts are stitched and bonded just the same as a triathlon wetsuit.

Description:

With the extra buoyancy support, you can focus more on the technique of the arm stroke, without the constant battle to keep the hips and legs in a high position in the water.

Results have shown that over time a swimmer’s body position, speed and endurance can be significantly increased by training with buoyancy shorts.

The buoyancy short are for any level of triathlete who wants to refine their open water swimming technique whilst in a pool. Swimming in a wetsuit during a triathlon is very different to swimming without a wetsuit during a swimming race. The majority of your power needs to derive from your upper body whereas your legs and core provide the essential control.

The product concept has twelve years of fantastic customer reviews behind it. Our buoyancy shorts have helped thousands of swimmers to improve their body position in the water and to refine their swim technique. Despite the great feeling they give a swimmer in the water it's best to only use these shorts during certain swim sets rather than the full session. Intended to be worn over your usual swim-costume.
