Buoyancy, but not where it doesn't belong. The SIM Elite II shorts from ROKA are a great alternative to a full wetsuit, perfect for hardcore training sessions.
Wetsuit Type: | Buoyancy Shorts |

Allowing you to extend you’re confident when you’re new to the wonderful world of triathlon, the ROKA Sim Elite II are a superb training option. The shorts work hard to give you the extra buoyancy at your hips that you’d be given with a wetsuit, but it keeps your body in the best position elsewhere too. As a result, your body’s muscle memory will be naturally improved, so you’ll automatically put your body in the correct position when it comes to competition. Even better is the fact that USAT rules dictate that these shorts are in the same category as full suits, so you can even wear them in competitions that allow wetsuits!
For those races, the Women’s SIM Elite II improves performance in other ways, too. The use of a Yamamoto SCS coating significantly reduces drag, to the point that you can feel yourself moving faster in the water. And while the fit of the neoprene may loosen slightly over time, these shorts come with a drawcord adjustment at the waist, so you’ll always be confident that you’ll find the perfect and most durable fit.
Balancing great performance and cost, ROKA’s shorts are an essential for anyone wanting to take their triathlon to the next level.
Modern triathlon wetsuits were invented by Dan Empfield in 1987 and are customized to the needs of triathletes, they generally incorporate the following key features which differentiates them from a normal wetsuit. 1, Thinner and/or more pliable rubber near the shoulders. 2, Long zippers to facilitate quick removal during transition. In addition, tri wetsuits have a very smooth, but often fragile, surface. This slick surface helps to reduce water friction and allows a faster swim. Another advantage of a tri wetsuit is the added buoyancy that the wetsuit provides, this can provide triathletes with a considerable speed and energy saving advantage over swimming without a suit.
At ROKA, we're dedicated to empowering triathletes and swimmers with products that make them faster — faster than they were yesterday, faster than they were last season, faster than their competition. Faster takes hard work, but when you find resonance in the water with your training and equipment there's nothing like it. We call it "easy speed" and it feels AWESOME. Lost it? Never had it? No worries. We're here to help. ROKA is head-quartered in Dallas, Texas and has employees in Los Angeles, California and Boulder, Colorado.
