FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Carbon Glide Jammer?

The primary benefit is reduced drag and enhanced muscle support, leading to improved speed and performance in the water.

Is this suit suitable for training?

While durable, this suit is optimized for racing. For regular training, consider using a more robust training suit to preserve the advanced technology of the racing jammer.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Arena sizing chart for racing suits. A proper fit should be snug and compressive without inhibiting breathing or range of motion.

How often should I rinse the suit?

Rinse the suit immediately in cold, non-chlorinated water after every single use to remove chlorine and salt, which can degrade the fabric.

What does 'FINA Approved' mean?

FINA Approved means the suit meets the strict regulations set by the Fédération Internationale de Natation (FINA) for competitive swimwear, allowing its use in official FINA-sanctioned events.

Can I machine wash this jammer?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the specialized fabric and compression technology. Hand rinse with cold water only.

Troubleshooting

Suit feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Racing suits are designed for a snug, compressive fit. If it's uncomfortable, it may be too small. Consider trying a size up.

Fabric losing its compression over time

This can be due to improper care. Always rinse immediately after use in cold, non-chlorinated water and hang dry away from heat. Avoid machine washing or drying.

Visible wear or damage to the fabric

Inspect the suit regularly for snags or tears, which can compromise its performance. Avoid sharp objects and rough surfaces when handling or storing the suit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a performance racing suit, and 'setup' primarily refers to ensuring the correct fit. Try the jammer on before a race day to confirm it fits snugly without being overly restrictive. The waistband should sit comfortably, and the leg openings should cover the upper thigh without bunching.

Compatibility: The Powerskin Carbon Glide Jammer is FINA approved, making it compatible with all major competitive swimming federations and events.

Care: To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your jammer:

  1. Rinse immediately in non-chlorinated water after each use.

  3. Do not tumble dry or iron.
  4. Hang dry away from direct sunlight.
  5. Avoid prolonged exposure to high temperatures.
