"Shaved and tapered" easy speed. Invisible to the water, with an ultra-slick skin that slides through the water, thanks to advanced hydrophobic textiles and laser-bonded seams.

Taut and straight through your core from IXI™ internal streamline support—and more propulsive than ever from a suit that connects hips to shoulders for sharper power transfer.

1. Athletes racing in short-sleeve kits—will get maximum speed benefits from fully covering the kit in a short-sleeve swimskin.
2. Athletes looking for max speed in non-wetsuit races—to gap the competition or to hang in the pack using fewer heartbeats.
3. Less experienced swimmers—will benefit from the extra core support in X.3 models to reduce "snaking" in the water.
4. Athletes racing long course—will benefit from the extra body line support and comfort in X.3 models as core muscles fatigue deep into the swim.

1. IXI™ Internal Streamline Support—Patented core support taping keeps your body straight and connects your hips to your shoulders, improving efficiency and power transfer.
2. ARMS-UP™ construction—Unmatched shoulder freedom in a short-sleeve design.
3. Precision-Engineered Textiles—Ultralight, low absorption textile with a unique stretch profile optimized for speed: high stretch radially (for breathing and comfort); low stretch vertically (for core support). Gentle skin feel for comfort.
4. Hydrophobic Coating—Repels water and reduces surface drag and absorption.
5. Laser-Cut Bonded Seams—Improves comfort (no stitching!) and reduces surface drag.
6. Quick Release Auto-Lock YKK Zipper—Eliminates lanyard, reducing drag. Quick release ensures a lightning fast T1: flip down to lock; flip up to release.
7. Silicone Leg Grippers—Printed silicone on inside of leg opening for a straight seam cut and no sausage leg.
