Axena The aXena is a project that has taken over 12 alignment. Combined months of refinement, working with athletes with the exclusive across the globe and finally we are so happy with Bicep-Release™ and Calf our product we have aligned with one of the most Release™. discerning and amazing athletes of the modern female triathlon scene. Caroline Steffen, also known as ‘Xena’ to her 625 € colleagues and friends, has found what she believes to be her perfect wetsuit. We have taken the NBR composite -39 X-O skeleton™ and wrapped the thighs and hips to deliver increased buoyancy and improved body Archimèdes II Huub You know, the kind of stuff you read which then changed gets year following the by another load of marketing flash copy - that means nothing - that just isn’t our style. The Archimedes 1, for us, was the best suit we could of designed at the time. Materials, production methods and research saw us create the best of the moment... so what has brought about the change to the Archimedes 2? Research, challenging production and learning, from pushing the bar of expectation beyond anything the wetsuit market has ever seen. Then there’s the lab... ‘The real lab’, the lab that told us to look deeper into modulus of materials and methods of construction, the lab that helped 695€ ensure we were maximising the properties of neoprene foam and the lining whilst taking that into account in the construction. The lab that has taught us more about stabilisation for a strong foundation, for the swim stroke and the lab that has taught us about muscle release and ‘Non-suit’ reaches and feel. The design of the Archimedes 2 was a process of focus. An intense focus on a few key areas We could take one of those ‘cheesy’ approaches that, by working with our factories and research and tell you how it was impossible making the team, we knew we could accomplish. It revolved best better and how our athletes told us that after around flexibility and creating the ‘non-suit’ feel, testing the Archimedes that it simply could not which then led to improved efficiency. be improved upon.
