blueseventy Helix wetsuit

For years Blueseventy's rangetopping
Helix has been the number
one item on many a triathlete's wish
list. It's probably no different this
season as the latest evolution boasts
more high-tech features than you
can shake a stick at, including
'Honeycomb Aqua Feel' catch panels
on the forearms and 'Torsional
Stretch Technology' around the
shoulders and back. But the main
thing with the 2015 Helix is that it
still feels incredibly supple and
mobile around the shoulders, while
maintaining excellent, balanced
buoyancy. It's definitely a suit faster
swimmers will appreciate. A
potential downside is that being so
thin in places means it's pretty
delicate, which is hard to ignore
when you're trying to tear yourself
out of a suit that costs nearly £500.

A super-supple top-end performance
suit, albeit a delicate and pricey one - 90%
