Zoot Manta Wetsuit

A sleeveless design is ideal if you prioritize maximum shoulder mobility and comfort, or if you are swimming in warmer water temperatures where full sleeves might cause overheating. It eliminates the restriction often felt during the catch and pull phases of your stroke.

AQUAlift panels are strategically placed to provide extra buoyancy around your hips and core. By lifting your lower body higher in the water, the suit helps you maintain a more efficient, horizontal swim posture, which reduces drag and saves energy.

No, the DORSALflex zipper is specifically engineered to allow the back of the suit to stretch and move with your body. This design prevents the stiff, binding feeling often associated with traditional back-zip wetsuits.

To preserve the drag-reducing SCS coating, always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cool water after every use. Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents, and never leave it to dry in direct sunlight, which can degrade the neoprene over time.

The Manta is versatile enough for both. While it offers performance features like GLIDEflex chest panels for easier breathing, the sleeveless cut and buoyancy-focused design make it very approachable for swimmers who are still refining their technique.
