Arena Powerskin Carbon Ultra Men#39;s Jammers Racing Swimsuit
Arena Powerskin Carbon Ultra Men#39;s Jammers Racing Swimsuit
- Designed to give you maximum compression and maximum comfort
- Utilizes POWERSKIN Intelligent Compression and Power Return Construction technologies
- INFINITY LOOP bonded seam construction with X-PIVOT POINT for perfect body position, body rotation control and stroke efficiency
- ULTRA COMPRESSION PANELS in the legs and core for extra muscle support and targeted compression, when and where needed

The Carbon Ultra is designed to give you maximum compression and maximum comfort. While high level compression tends to be more popular with sprinters, the zoned compression of Carbon Ultra makes this a favorite of Rio’s 1500 m Gold Medalist Gregorio Paltrinieri. Most swimmers find the ideal fit to be one size up from your practice suit size. In addition to utilizing POWERSKIN Intelligent Compression and Power Return Construction technologies - the Carbon Ultra introduces new features designed to optimize your performance including: INFINITY LOOP bonded seam construction with X-PIVOT POINT for perfect body position, body rotation control amp; stroke efficiency ULTRA COMPRESSION PANELS in the legs and core for extra muscle support and targeted compression, when and where needed CARBON ULTRA CAGE with 3 times the carbon fiber of any other arena Carbon suit for multi-direction, high-density, intelligent compression. Also available in women's models in an open back or a closed back suit. Carbon Ultra Technology: LEARN MORE Fitting tips Most swimmers go up one from their training suit size If you’ve ordered multiple sizes, try the biggest one first If you can’t get it on, it’s too small If it has ripples and gaps, it’s too big Compression Level Rating: 5 (1 - least compression | 5 - most compression offered)

Ultra-Link SystemThe Powerskin Carbon-Ultra incorporates a new level of support and movement management with an internal structure inside the suit. This is the Ultra-Link system designed to optimize your physiology. By connecting key muscle groups and isolating upper and lower body movements, it increases your efficiency and improves your position in the water. By providing targeted compression zones, it further supports and streamlines your body to reduce turbulence and drag. |
Infinity-LoopThe Infinity-Loop feature of the Powerskin Carbon-Ultra is designed using a deep knowledge of the key muscle chains that help you to hold a streamlined body position. The Infinity-Loop is a continuous tape that anchors on the muscle chain in your upper body for extra support. It links your ribs to your hips while still allowing you the freedom to rotate. The Infinity-Loop connects to your gluteus maximus, keeping your hips high and helping you to reduce your tilt in the water. This enables you to maintain the optimal body position in the water to increase your stroke efficiency. |
X-Pivot TechnologyThe Powerskin Carbon-Ultra delivers intelligent compression and anatomical support without limiting your freedom of movement. This is achieved by incorporating the X-Pivot feature. The X-Pivot feature is designed around the body mechanics to isolate movement in the upper and lower body. A brace created by strategically placed tapes keeps your lower body and core muscles firm and supported whilst still allowing your upper body to rotate freely. This movement isolation increases your efficiency by allowing you to pivot mid-stroke with minimal additional rotation or loss of body position in the water. |
Ultra-Compression PanelsSupported by a superior knowledge of swimmers’ anatomy, the Powerskin Carbon Ultra takes an intelligent approach to compression. The Ultra-compression panels are designed to work with the Ultra-Cage fabric to deliver targeted areas of additional compression on the inside of the suit. The multi-layer panels support your key muscles and align them with the direction of movement. The panels also streamline your shape, reducing drag and minimizing water resistance to maximize your efficiency. |
High Density Carbon Cage
HD Intelligent Compression
This HD intelligent compression is enabled by the anisotropic stretch of the fabric. This allows differential stretch in the horizontal and vertical directions, which means that the Ultra-Cage fabric compresses your body without restricting your reach and freedom of movement.
Carbon Ultra Cage
The Powerskin Carbon-Ultra uses a outer shell fabric, which delivers intelligent compression of your body. The Ultra-Cage fabric contains three times more carbon than before and the fabric is woven more tightly. This means it is able to more accurately conform to your shape, distributing pressure to streamline your body.
