I’ve got some New with tags TYR speed suits to clear out. These can be worn for the entire race in a shorter or cooler race or over your normal race wear in a longer race.
These are the “Short John” cut meaning they look like a men’s tri suit but with a rear zip. I raced in the Aquashift model for a full year, very nice suit for up to Olympic distance and great to wear over your normal race wear in a longer non wetsuit swim.
Aquapel is what was around before the newer Aquashift. Same fabric as Aquashift, a super duper smooth rolled and silicone coated fabric, but with different seaming.
Aquashift is current technology and both of these suits get a lot of action on the ITU circuit. a blurb…
Aqua Shift Male Short John ZipperbackAqua Shift Male Short John Zipperback. This may be the only time you’ll see TYR’s latest innovation standing still. Tripwires are the key. There are three key tripwires, one at the top, one on the back and one at the bottom. Aggressive to the eye, they’re far from gratuitous. Each one is scientifically placed to catapult you through the water the moment the laminar flow quickly becomes turbulent. The fabric we use goes through several treatments such as a thermal heat application that sears it into a silky-smooth water repellant finish. All of our treatments combined will minimize drag and micro-turbulence while enhancing hydrodynamic efficiency and glide time. The fabric’s modular strength provides advanced compression dynamics for a tight, uniform fit thanks to a high-density power and memory technology that contains body mass while improving muscle performance and recovery. Available in Black / White Stripe, Navy / White and Royal / White in even sizes 26 through 36. “Add to Cart” to specify Size and Color.
Suits both retail for $250ish and can be found at a discount online. Your choice $110 shipped per suit or $210 shipped for two, $300 shipped for all three. Paypal and will ship Usps priority mail. Out of country shipping available but will be a bit of an extra charge.
Aquapel suits are in size 30 and 34 and like all these suits fit pretty damn small. I’m 5’10", 155lbs, wear a small or medium normal tri suit and wear a 32 in an Aquapel or Aquashift.
Aquapel is royal blue with red stitching, kinda like the pic below on the left but again royal with red
Aquashift is navy with white stripes and shown on the right.
