NEW 2024 MODEL PRE ORDER
Our all time best selling suit gets the upgrades needed to keep it at the top of it's category.
Following the design of our elite level Helix wetsuit, the paneling in the upper body of the 2024 Reaction has been redesigned to encourage more natural rotation and increase distance per stroke. These features, combined with the refined fit on the arms, create a suit that delivers everything you need for training and racing.
1. Easier Breathing - An improved, lower neckline increases comfort and minimizes chafing without compromising the seal to prevent water entry.
2. Seamless Shoulders - One single piece of 39 cell 1.5mm Yamamoto neoprene dramatically improves flexibility and reduces fatigue throughout your entire stroke. Combined with 1.5mm underarm panels, you'll find no resistance while swimming regardless of whether your arms are up, down or anywhere in between.
3. Reactive Stretch Technology - 2mm neoprene with high stretch jersey offers greater mobility and reach throughout the shoulders and back, reducing fatigue and increasing distance per stroke.
4. Ultra Thin Arms - Premium, ultra-thin, 1.5mm neoprene in the arms provides flexibility, comfort and speed.
5. Optimised Buoyancy - 5mm thick core and hips transitions down to 4mm in the lower legs to maximize your efficiency with a more streamlined body position.
6. Natural Rotation Hip Drive -
Building off the Helix design, we've narrowed the center panel on the upper body and extended the thinner, 3mm, side panels through the hips to maximize your natural body rotation in order to generate more power, resulting in more speed with less effort.
7. Premium Materials - The highest quality, SCS coated, Yamamoto smooth-skin neoprene offers excellent flexibility and durability. We pair this with high quality, extremely stretchy jersey linings in order to produce an end result that never limits your movements while swimming.
8. S-Flex Side Panels - 3mm side panels on the legs help create an optimal fit across varying body shapes and improve the ease of getting into the suit.
9. Quick Exit Legs - 1.5mm thin leg panels make it easy to get out of the suit after your swim, decreasing your transition times. Reinforced seam taping allows you to trim the legs if needed.
NEOPRENE BUOYANCY & FLEXIBILITY
When it comes to a swimming wetsuit, two factors really matter: Flexibility and Buoyancy. Thinner neoprene is more flexible, while thicker neoprene will provide more buoyancy.
Blueseventy wetsuits are strategically designed to offer the most flexibility where you need it, such as the arms, shoulders and upper back area. We use thin, 1.5mm - 2mm neoprene in these areas to offer complete freedom of movement throughout your entire stroke.
Thicker neoprene is placed in areas that typically tend to sink for swimmers, and where flexibility is not key. You'll find 4mm - 5mm neoprene in the chest, hips, and upper legs to enhance your swim form to be as efficient and streamlined as possible.
