Zone 3 Vanquish Wetsuit
Building on the incredible pedigree of the Vanquish, the latest model is the leanest, meanest and fastest wetsuit ever made. When they set about designing it, they wanted to create a suit that was the most flexible on the market across the shoulders, arms, upper back, and lats whilst combining maximum buoyancy through the quads, hips, and glutes.
The Zone3 Vanquish Wetsuit is viewed by many as the worlds best thanks to its unprecedented fit, comfort, and performance.
An ultra-thin one-piece shoulder panel extends from the middle of the chest to the center of the back, and arm span for improved chest expansion. Being only 1.5mm thick and constructed using Yamamoto's premium #40 SCS this panel is the lightest, high stretching material. Enabling a higher elbow position in the water and providing an unrestricted range of movement through each stroke. The focus on ensuring maximum flexibility means you can conserve energy and minimise the risk of shoulder injuries. Furthermore, Comfort is maximised through the 1mm moulded soft and light collar. It provides a tighter fit on the body without causing discomfort around the neck.
Aeroforce fabric on the forearms creates an improved feeling and catch in the water, reducing arm fatigue and allowing for improved efficiency in the water. Using a double layer of high performance, water repellant lycra prevents water from entering inside the suit but still allows you to feel the coolness of the water on the forearm panel, aligning your hand and forearm, therefore providing a more natural swim. Additionally, a super buoyant Yamamoto Aerodome roll bar runs down the center of the chest promoting essential torso rotation between each strike. Producing 30% more buoyancy than conventional neoprene, aiding in course sighting and maintaining core body warmth. NBR construct side panels work in unison with the front leg panels ensures maximum lift in the water whilst 39 cell SCS neoprene on the glutes supports the core leg muscles.
An innovative Silk-Fit inner lining is used on the body and legs to provide extreme next to skin comfort and makes it easier than ever to put the suit on. Aquadynamic SCS nanocoating applied to the neoprene create zero drag in the water whilst pro speed cuffs on the arms and legs provide rapid removal after a swim to ensure the quickest of transitions. Finally, downwards YKK zippers make the suit easy to put on and take off, saving you vital time on any course.
