GLYDE Zenith AIR 5.0 Technology FREEARMS™ 1.5mm Ultra-flex shoulder and arm construction engineered to deliver unrestricted movement throughout the swim stroke. The 1.5mm premium neoprene reduces shoulder fatigue while allowing a natural reach, catch and recovery. BreathFlex™ Chest Panel A highly flexible 1.5mm chest expansion zone designed to allow the rib cage to expand naturally during breathing. BreathFlex™ reduces chest restriction and helps swimmers maintain relaxed, efficient breathing throughout their swim. AIRCORE™ Buoyancy System Extending from the ribs to above the knees, AIRCORE™ provides balanced buoyancy where swimmers need it most. The system helps elevate the hips, improve body position and reduce drag, creating a more efficient and streamlined swim. FlowAlign™ Side Panels Strategically positioned 3mm side panels with advanced contour shaping help encourage natural body alignment through the water. Rather than relying on excessive buoyancy, FlowAlign™ promotes stability, efficiency and a more natural swimming feel. HydroBalance™ Lower Leg System The 4mm lower leg buoyancy construction helps keep the legs higher in the water, reducing drag and supporting an efficient body position from start to finish. QuickRelease™ Transition Legs Engineered with fast-exit ankle panels that allow the wetsuit to be removed quickly and efficiently, helping athletes save valuable time during transitions. ComfortSeal™ Low Neck An ultra-low profile neckline designed to minimise pressure around the throat while maintaining an effective seal. ComfortSeal™ reduces chafing, improves comfort and allows unrestricted breathing throughout the swim. The GLYDE Philosophy The Zenith AIR 5.0 wasn't designed by a marketing department. It was designed by swimmers, coaches and wetsuit specialists who understand what actually makes swimmers faster, more comfortable and more confident in the water. After decades of coaching swimmers, fitting thousands of wetsuits and studying hydrodynamics, we learned that performance doesn't come from flashy marketing claims. It comes from reducing drag, improving body position, allowing unrestricted breathing and creating a wetsuit that works with the swimmer instead of against them. Every panel, thickness and technology in the Zenith AIR 5.0 exists for a reason. If it doesn't improve comfort, efficiency or speed, it doesn't belong in the suit. The result is a wetsuit designed to help more swimmers enjoy the water, swim further, swim faster and GLYDE through every stroke with confidence.
