HUUB ARCHIMEDES III 3:5 Review

• +43 Foam The most significant technological advancement in wetsuit materials for over 80 years. After tests after tests and questing the norm HUUB have created a material that is lighter and more buoyant. The result? A ground-breaking 43% more buoyant (than standard neoprene foam). Worth waiting 80 years! Neoprene will always have its place, the Japanese Yamamoto materials HUUB use are perfect for stretch and reach zones. Coupled with HUUB’s design, testing, knowledge and process there really is no substitute, but buoyancy proposes a separate set of needs. Buoyancy in swimming wetsuits – first came neoprene, then NBR and now there is +43, HUUB say that they cannot wait for you to try it and they’re proud of what they’ve created because “its no longer just about neoprene”.  Graduation buoyancy Graduated buoyancy profiles around the hips, thighs and lower quads ensures a more streamlined profile in the water, a faster suit and more buoyancy. Bicep release 360 The original Bicep release assisted correct arm positioning and bicep expansion to allow a natural bent arm state for recovery and catch.  Huub have now taken this one step further by also applying this technology to the triceps. With the use of materials (a more relaxed fabric covering) in both the tricep and bicep areas, it offers benefits for arm positioning through stress of catch & pull and enhances the recovery phase by allowing a more relaxed arm position with high elbow and less swing. With less tension, less fatigue, more comfort and more efficient stroke alignment the Bicep Release just went 360. M.A.D System Measurement of Active Drag M.A.D in a nutshell is how much drag am I creating in differing wetsuits, swimskins etc.? Developed in partnership with Innovate-UK the most advanced M.A.D system resides at HUUB’s testing facility partnership in Mallorca with BEST swim centre. How can you make claims without thorough testing, so that is what HUUB do they test what works and what doesn’t. HD Labs The in-house development team tasked with one simple brief ‘question everything’. “It’s what you don’t see that makes YOU faster” Low Neck Line HUUB know they have the most comfortable neck in the wetsuit industry. They don’t fold and stitch, HUUB refuse to create a tourniquet of rubber to restrict breathing and flexibility HUUB stood alone and will stand by this simple and effective design. 3mm Upper Body Materials And 5mm Lower Body Materials 85% of triathletes come to the sport from a non-swimming background and many suffer from low sinking legs in the water as they swim. Of course the buoyancy of any wetsuit helps bring the legs up higher but never before have wetsuits been designed specifically for these swimmers with a large buoyancy difference between the upper and lower bodies. Until you swim in one of these suits you won’t believe how high your legs can be, they will feel glued to the surface and your potential as a swimmer will be truly unleashed! As HUUB designed these sophisticated high technology suits, they increasingly moved away from neoprene towards new materials with properties of increased buoyancy and specified levels of stretch.

There are several key considerations that we like you to think about when buying any product, these are designed to help you to get the most of your money and also to help you find the very best products from a number of options available. Our first piece of advice is to check out the key features of HUUB ARCHIMEDES III 3:5 to ascertain what it is about it that stands out from the competition. We also recommend that you spend a bit of time comparing HUUB ARCHIMEDES III 3:5 to other products from HUUB to see how it stacks up against similar products.

Then when you have spent the time looking at some of the key features, we suggest that you write yourself a list of things that your Wetsuits product must have. These ‘must haves’ can vary from specific features that you’re looking for, or it may be that you’re only willing to buy from a retailer like Wiggle Online Cycle Shop or perhaps you only want a brand such as HUUB. This list will really prove useful when you come to narrowing down your choices and ultimately whether you decide to buy HUUB ARCHIMEDES III 3:5 or an alternative option. We can’t stress this enough, once you have written your list, stick to it. So often we’re tempted by a good deal and end up straying away from the criteria that we set ourselves, which can mean we end up spending more, or buying a product that isn’t actually fit for the purpose we originally intended.
