Why pointzero3?

the pointzero3, is the product of thinking, about getting the best out of non-wetsuit swims. Like the Helix wetsuit,the super slick coating on the pointzero3 has a drag coefficient of 0.032 which is over 50 times lower than skin and more than 4 times lower than other swim ‘skins’ on the market. The fit and styling have been developed from the world’s fastest triathlon wetsuit, blueseventy’s helix, and features the double hoop of high strewtch materials, that forms the helix shape after which the suit is named. This extra-stretchy band of lycra, in the pointzero3,  mechanically decouples the arms from the rest of the suit. When you stretch into the stroke you are normally pulling against the non flexible material of the suit, but in the pointzero3 the lycra bands work to “float” the arm so it doesn’t have to work against resistance.

After several years of careful development and testing the first samples of the pointrzero3 were launched in Kona, Hawaii 2006, with spectacular results:

• Norman Stalder World Champion (PR swim)
• Desiree Ficker - Female Runner Up
• Max Longree - Overall Amateur winner
• Tom Thorum - Fastest Overall Swimmer
• Linda Gallo - Fastest Overall Female Swimmer

Technical specifications

Behind the results of the poinzero3 swim suit is a combination of latest technology materials and hours of work with athletes developing a fit that enhances and compliments all facets of the swim stroke. The starting point is the use of the Modetech fabric, from which the 0.032 drag coefficient lends the pinzero3 its name. The neutrally buoyant fabric, is a careful integration of stretch lyrca, and precision manufacturing, enabling unrestricted arm movement through 360 degrees of the swim stroke. The pointzero3 has been comprehensively tested is eligible for all USAT, World WTC, and IMNA events.
