The silver grey Arena Carbon Ultra jammers are at the top of the Arena race range. They incorporate the latest technology to aid body position and intelligent muscle compression.
The jammers outer shell integrates an ULTRA-CAGE with three times more carbon than before. This enhances Arena’s trademark intelligent compression without compromising reach and freedom of movement.
Ultra-Compression Panels
The panels work with the external Ultra-Cage to deliver targeted areas of additional compression on the inside of the suit. This supports key muscles and aligns them with the direction of movement. The multi-layer panels also streamline body shape, keeping it stable and high in the water. This in turn reduces drag and minimizes water resistance, particularly in areas normally prone to turbulence. These factors all contribute to maximizing the swimmer’s efficiency.
The Carbon Ultra uses an outer shell fabric which delivers intelligent compression, a hallmark of the carbon family of suits. The fabric is woven more tightly and contains three times more carbon than before. This means the suit is able to more accurately conform to the athlete’s shape, distributing pressure uniformly to streamline the body. Intelligent compression is enabled through the anisotropic (having a physical property which has a different value when measured in different directions) stretch of the fabric. This allows differential stretch in the horizontal and vertical directions and results in effective compression of the body without restricting reach and freedom of movement.
Simply stated: greater output (performance) for each unit of input (energy)
