The Carbon Flex is the newest addition to Arena's best-selling Carbon Series. With six models of carbon technology on the market, Arena now offers swimmers diverse options in fit and flexibility while maintaining the unique benefits of the world's most innovative racing and compression technology. The Carbon Flex is the first product in the Arena family to use the patented V-Flex System. This system includes taped and bonded external rear seams to provide maximum range of motion and freedom of movement around the hips, glutes and shoulders. Anatomically placed anchor points and high-strength elastic tapes create tension lines along the back of the upper legs that provide a lifting effect, helping swimmers improve body position and alleviate drag and resistance from fatigued legs. While offering the above differences, the Flex, like all products in the POWERSKIN Carbon Series feature the following benefits: Carbon Cage: Arena?s Carbon Series features the world?s first technical racing suits with high-strength carbon fiber woven into a lightweight high-stretch nylon fabric. Intelligent Compression: The Carbon Cage technology locks down when and where a critical stress level is reached, maximizing compression on over-extended zones when and where needed, while retaining elasticity and freedom of movement. Power Return System: Strategic placement of bonded seams and internal elastic taping stores potential energy and releases this energy in dives, kicks, and turns to maximize efficiency, power, and speed. Designed to fit larger body types with more fabric strech in the hips, vs. the Carbon Pro kneeskin. Taping on back of the legs increases power and efficiency.
Utilizes the mark 2 Carbon fabric. One Arena logo printed on the chest of the Carbon Flex. Fina Approved.
