Zone3 Neoprene 'Originals' 5/3mm Buoyancy Shorts Men - black/blue

The first Buoyancy Shorts from Zone3 were developed in 2007: As the inventor of this product, Zone3 named these shorts 'The Originals'. Over the past eight years, the shorts have garnered fantastic reviews from customers and helped every swimmer improve their technique. The shorts were developed as an alternative to a pull buoy. They give a more natural buoyancy feeling and support the body in the middle. The latest version of this model offers an even more comfortable waistband and new visual highlights.

'The Originals' are also made of high-quality smoothskin neoprene and are sewn and glued in exactly the same way as triathlon suits. The shorts are made from 3mm neoprene on the front and 5mm neoprene on the sides. The thinner material provides extra buoyancy while the thicker sides support the rotation of the hips with each stroke.

Features of the Zone3 Neoprene 'Originals' 5/3mm buoyancy shorts

• Original design from Zone3
• Helped thousands of swimmers improve technique and speed
• New, extra comfortable waistband

The Zone3 Buoyancy Shorts The Originals 5/3mm serve three main purposes:

1. for beginners, the biggest problem is usually stability in the torso and leg movement which prevents higher speeds. Arm technique is good but the poor horizontal position in the water creates a lot of drag and 'dead weight', making it difficult to swim efficiently. The Buoyancy Shorts ensure a better horizontal and streamlined position in the water. This develops a feeling for the correct position. Furthermore, swimmers can concentrate better on more efficient footwork and make better progress without their legs sinking.

The additional buoyancy also allows swimmers to focus more on their arm technique without having to constantly pay attention to their hips and legs. Test results prove that position in the water, speed and endurance can be significantly improved when training with the Buoyancy Shorts.

2. ideal for triathletes who want to improve their technique in open water or in the pool. Swimming with a wetsuit during a triathlon makes a big difference compared to not wearing one. Most of the energy comes from the upper body, whereas the legs and torso are responsible for control. These shorts improve technique in open water and are a good alternative to a wetsuit if it is too warm or even prohibited.

3. a good alternative to a full wetsuit when training in open water. (when the weather is warm enough!) This product has already received hundreds of positive reviews from swimmers who have seen significant improvements. Despite the great feeling, it is better not to wear the shorts for the entire training session. The shorts come with a drawstring for a perfect fit.
