As with the Maverick Pro wetsuit, we put everything we know and love into our Viper swimskins. We built the Viper from the ground up and leveraged our experience as elite swimmers to deliver the ultimate swimskin — no compromises. We focused on every detail, from the world's fastest materials and hi-tech, bonded seam panel construction to low profile zippers and hidden stitch reinforcement. These details add up to free speed on race day. Pro and age group athletes wearing our Viper swimskins have had many First Out of the Water finishes — both in the professional and age group ranks. All of our swimskins are WTC legal.
In 2015 & 2016, our Viper swimskins were the most popular swimskins overall at the IRONMAN World Championships in Kailua-Kona and have been trusted by the best athletes in the sport. If you are racing a non-wetsuit swim, you need a Viper.
