Tester Zoot Bolt Wetsuit Black/Yellow/Silver Mens 2021

BOLT

Beat the competition in the NEW Bolt Wetsuit. The suit was developed based on years of testing by IRONMAN champions like Ben Hoffmann, along with the experience of age group athletes to provide the best all-round triathlete suit. The Bolt wetsuit offers buoyancy, flexibility and speed making it the ultimate wetsuit for triathletes who don't have perfect swimming technique. By using the Yamamoto Aerodome, the Bolt achieves the perfect balance between lift and flexibility. This helps you achieve the best performance through an ideal shape and positioning in the water without sacrificing any speed

NEOPRENE TECHNOLOGIES:

YAMAMOTO NEOPRENE
Zoot uses only the very best neoprene made by Yamamoto in Japan and the best rubber material available. Yamamoto's neoprene is made from a limestone base and has a different cell structure than the commonly used petroleum-based neoprene. It is more flexible, durable and better for the environment than traditional neoprene. Additionally, the Yamamoto neoprene absorbs very little water, making Zoot wetsuits lighter and warmer.

NECK COMFORT
Zoot wetsuits feature a raised back flap made from butter-soft neoprene to protect the neck from chafing.

LIFT PROFILE
All Zoot wetsuits feature our proprietary AQUAlift buoyancy profile. With the AQUAlift construction, the mid/lower front of the suit has strategically placed panels to create the most buoyancy with only 5mm thick neoprene. This will lift your torso and legs out of the water to put you in a perfect horizontal swimming position

YAMAMOTO AERODOME
The Yamamoto Aerodome is engineered to use air bubbles between the layers of fabric to make the wetsuit lighter and more buoyant, generating up to 30% more buoyancy than traditional wetsuits.

SCS COATING
SCS (Super Composite Skin) is a hydrodynamic coating that improves swimming speed by reducing water resistance, allowing the suit to glide through the water more efficiently. Think of it as a high-tech Teflon coating that repels water and protects your wetsuit by reducing the possibility of rips and tears.

GLIDEFLEX
Ribbed neoprene panels increase the stretch of the wetsuit for maximum lung and muscle expansion.

SHOULDER AND ARM MOBILITY
Zoot wetsuits are designed so that the shoulder and arms are as flexible as possible. Our relentless focus on ensuring maximum flexibility means you can increase your distance per move and have more mobility with less fatigue at every stage of your move.

MATERIALS INSIDE
Zoot suits are made with high quality textile linings optimized for maximum stretch, comfort and low absorption. We only use high quality, silky smooth nylon fabrics so our wetsuits are super easy to take off in the transition zone.

DORSALFLEX ZIPPER
2mm neoprene around the back zip provides better stretch and therefore improved lung expansion. Zoot's DORSALflex zipper construction allows the material around the zipper to stretch with the body, eliminating the traditional restrictive feel of zipper pulls.

MOONTAPE REINFORCEMENTS
The heat-resistant moontape is attached approx. 7.5cm at the arm and leg ends to ensure maximum durability and offers the possibility to adjust the leg length cleanly. Spot reinforcements are placed throughout the suit to ensure long-lasting comfort and durability.

OKD - OPTIMAL KICK DESIGN
OKD is Zoot's proprietary leg construction that adjusts to the angle of your knee in the water, working with the anatomy rather than against it. OKD provides increased arm frequency and efficiency.

INTERIOR COMPOSITION - 100% Nylon
