Back Shark Skin Age: Manufacturer'S "Reform" Swimsuit Refurbished

This competition is the first international competition after the fina issued the "shark suppression order". It is also the largest and most efficient high-tech experimental site before the London Olympic Games.

Since January 1, 2011, men and women in the swimming pool of the fina will no longer be able to use high-tech swimsuit "shark skin".

The new swimsuit after the "shark order" has also become a topic of concern. What are the characteristics of swimmers' new swimsuits in the so-called "shark skin age"?

New rules

Is there really no technical content in bathing suits?

Chengdu Business Daily reporter recently learned that, in fact, the new swimwear still has a lot of technology content, according to the industry insiders: "is a new round of high-tech products."

Yao Zhengjie, head coach of China national swimming team, said: "at present, the new swimsuits of two brands of Arena and Speedo are equipped with the national team. Compared with the previous ones, I think the new swimsuit has no great features under the" swimming shark order "of the fina. As to which swimmer chooses which swimsuit to compete in, it is based on the preferences of the athletes.

The reporter also interviewed Zhang Yadong, former head coach of the national swimming team of China. He said: "the new swimsuit must be different from the material before, such as textile fabrics, but it can also be integrated into the high-tech design of swimsuit design and fabric design.

As to whether this year's World Championships will break the world record as well as the last one, no one can say well now.

Arena's Aquaforceone swimsuit's unique "backpack design" allows athletes to feel and swim.

That is to say, the swimsuit manufacturers have fully studied the new regulations of the Dubai charter, and have produced "reproduced high-tech swimsuits" that conform to the new regulations.

Speedo also launched a new product in November last year. The new swimwear is called "LZRRacerElite", meaning "elite product" in LZRRacer.

Speedo, head of China sports marketing department, said: "the new swimsuit is elastic and easy to wear, which is exactly the same as the traditional swimsuit."

As for whether we can set a record high in the swimming pool this year, it is Speedo's "LZRRacerElite" skill or the Aquaforceone of Arena. Zhang Yadong, the coach of the former national team, who will arrive tomorrow in the world championships, said, "now everyone can't speak well."

Manufacturers "reform" to seek new life

After the Dubai charter and supplementary agreements came out, the media predicted that the manufacturers of shark skin would suffer heavy losses.

Before the US media widely hyped Speedo, then France's big name Arena and Italy's rising star Jaked were in the brink of collapse after the ban: a lot of high-tech swimsuits are unsalable.

These high-tech equipment with prices ranging from RMB 4000 to 7000 yuan are in danger of being scrapped.

But surprisingly, the 3 manufacturers have managed to tide over the difficulties.

What is the reason?

According to the Chengdu Commercial Daily reporter, the three high-tech swimsuit manufacturing enterprises have obtained a new living space through the "reform".

The way out for Speedo: shark skin change body clothes.

And the fina game, to achieve a certain period of buffer period.

At the end of November 2009, Speedo has developed a new generation of swimsuits which exclude impermeable materials.

Subsequently, Speedo developed a new production line for fashion sports, which pformed all the "shark skin" bathing suits that had already been sold into a bathing suit.

After listing, its superior binding power makes products popular among slimming people.

The way out for Arena: Aquaforceone is fast and superordinate.

Before the Arena brand China agent Shanghai Desanto Commercial Co., Ltd., two business marketing manager Ma Liang told reporters that Arena is developing high-tech products behind the scenes, in addition to the competition swimsuit research and development: This is X-glide and Aquaforceone.

The former added prohibited substances, poly Yaan ester, while the latter contained no such substance.

Therefore, after the fina's ban was issued, Aquaforceone quickly came to the top to turn the tide for the company.

Recently, the national swimming team coach Yao Zhengjie told the Chengdu Commercial Daily reporter that Aquaforceone has become the flagship product of the Arena brand.

In early 2010, he became a new product sponsor of China swimming national team, and he was "fighting against Speedo" in the national team.

As for which brand to use in the team, it depends entirely on the athlete's own choice. "Personally, I think these new swimsuits have no special characteristics, but athletes wear some habits, so we let them choose for themselves."

Yao Zhengjie said.

At the end of last year, when Tang Yi opened the first world record of the "shark skin age" in the short tournament, she wore Aquaforceone.

The way out for Jaked: retreat directly and return to the bank.

The ban is a direct retreat from the high-tech swimsuit market.

Fabbri J, the designer of J01, told the Italy media that as a company originally started with diving suits, the development of shark skin bathing suits can complement their diving suits.

Now that shark skin is banned, they are the wisest to return to their old business.

There are also shark skins in diving bathing suits.

- to reduce water entry resistance: add drainage drains - for anti infrared videotaping: cover test for key parts.

Is there shark skin in diving suit?

Recently, China's diving team competition costumes sponsor Li Ning Co gave a positive answer.

Zhao Jun, the product manager of the company, revealed the high-tech secret of "dream team" swimsuit yesterday.

According to Zhao Jun, the Chinese diving team's competition suit adopts the unique special Lycra fabric. When the athletes turn, turn around and take full action, the athletes' muscles and body are free from restraint, which guarantees the consistency of the movements to the greatest extent.

The high-tech components of the swimsuit's core are reflected in the drainage trough behind swimsuit and swimming trunks - a vertical gap.

This design seems to be simple and very powerful.

Contrary to the "shark skin" that you are familiar with, swimsuit worn by diving requires athletes to quickly discharge water between swimsuit and body at the moment of entering the water, so as to reduce the resistance of water entry and achieve the best spray effect.

The best design to solve this problem is drains.

"Now the swimsuit used by the Chinese national team is two. They are red and blue.

But most athletes like to use blue because they look thinner in blue, and swimsuits with lighter colors are easier to bump.

Zhao Jun said.

Referring to the covering and bumps, it is tempting to recall that Guo Jingjing was photographed by the infrared ray camera at the edge of the swimming pool. Zhao Jun said that the diving suit should be thin and pparent so that it can help to press the water flowers. So we can only try some anti infrared materials in the swimsuit. "We have done some experiments, covering experiments in some key parts, but the technology is very complicated, so at present, we can only cover them by using patterns to disturb and deepen the colors."
