TYR Women's Avictor Prelude Open Back Race Suit

Avictor - The Ultimate Advantage

Showcasing an unprecedented combination of advanced features, this FINA-approved technical suit maximizes performance and gives athletes the ultimate advantage over their rivals.

Hydrosphere Technology

Hydrosphere Technology works in harmony with a swimmer’s natural abilities in order to optimize body positioning in the water. Ground-breaking technology causes water to surround the fabric of the swimsuit, creating a visible hydrospheric effect. As a result of maximized positioning, drag is reduced and speed and efficiency are boosted.

Unmatched Comfort and Support.

Designed with proprietary Speed Dry Fabrication, the Avictor swimsuit rapidly repels water and minimizes dry time, providing compression even when saturated for extended periods of time. Rigorously tested to ensure athletes experience a lightweight, snug fit at all times, the Avictor swimsuit performs throughout long meets and multiple swims, providing unmatched comfort and support.

100% natural movement and mobility

High-tech Super Flex Bonding allows fully bonded seams to conform to the swimmer’s body and provide a durable, 360 degree stretch. The result is a precisely fitted, ultra compressive swimsuit that maximizes core stabilization and overall support while allowing 100% natural movement and mobility.

FITTING AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

DISCLAIMER:
• The TYR Avictor is specially designed for swimmers competing at high levels of competition.
• The right size tech suit should have a tight fit, compressed feel and take time to put on.
• Failure to follow these guidelines may result in ripping or tearing of the technical suit.

HOW TO FIT YOUR TECH SUIT: This guide will walk you through how to wear, care for and store your tech suit.
• Begin sizing yourself for the correct Avictor by taking your measurements in a training suit. (If attire is too compressive, measurements may become distorted. As a result, we suggest swimmers never size themselves in a tech suit.)
• Next, reference the available size chart to find your correct fit. We recommend you purchase the size that encompasses the majority of your measurements.
• If you are in between two sizes you may choose to either size down for extra compression, or size up for a more comfortable fit.

FEMALE: HOW TO PUT ON YOUR TECH SUIT
Gloves and plastic bags for the feet can be used to aid in dressing.
Both the swimmer and the tech suit should be dry at the start of this process.
Fingernails should be trimmed and smooth to avoid damage to the suit.

STEP 1 To begin, insert one foot at a time through the neck opening.
STEP 2 Next, flip up the bottom leg grippers. This will make the suit easier to slip on.
STEP 3 Raise the tech suit by pulling up, stopping just below the knee. Repeat for the second leg.
STEP 4 Pull each suit leg over the knee until both are even.
STEP 5 Slowly keep pulling up on each side of the suit until the legs are fully covered. This process may take several attempts/minutes. At this point excess fabric from the suit body should be sitting on top of the thighs.

STEP 6 Once the legs of the suit are in place, it is time to ease the suit over the hips/bottom. This too should take several attempts.

STEP 7 Next, adjust the centre seams until they have been lifted as much as possible. Once they are resting on the body, you may begin pulling the suit over the torso.

STEP 8 Lift the suit over the torso until it reaches the bust area.

STEP 9 With the suit resting just below the bust, place one arm into the armhole. When doing this you will need to lower and bend the arm to manoeuvre yourself in. As a result of the suit’s compression, this may take time. Repeat with the second arm.

STEP 10 After the suit is entirely on, check that the centre seams are against the body, the bust is securely in place and all side seams are aligned.

STEP 11 Finally, flip each leg gripper down and move freely. Lift the legs to ensure the suit is in place.

REMOVING YOUR TECH SUIT:
• The Avictor should only be worn during elite events and taken off in between races.
• To begin, peel the tech suit off of your body, leaving it inside out as you go.
• Remember to avoid using the fingernails when pulling off your suit.
• Once the suit is off, turn it right-side out and follow care instructions.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
• Rinse immediately in cold water.
• Avoid using bleach.
• Do not iron.
• Do not dry clean.
• Lay the suit out flat to dry.
• Leaving a tech suit in the sun can lead to a more rapid breakdown of fabric.
To ensure optimal shelf life, place your suit in the bag provided.
