Frequently Asked Questions
A pair of goggles that seal and don't fog, a bright swim cap, and a safety buoy if you swim away from patrolled beaches. Add a swimming wetsuit for warmth and buoyancy once the water cools. Neoprene caps, booties and gloves stretch your season into winter.
A triathlon wetsuit for races where they're allowed, a swimskin for warm-water races where they're not, goggles you've trained in, and the race cap supplied at check-in. Wear your trisuit underneath so you can go straight from swim to bike.
Wear a thermal wetsuit such as the Orca Vitalis Thermal, then cover your head, hands and feet with a thermal neoprene cap or hood, gloves and booties. A base layer or Heatseeker vest adds a further layer. Get out, dry off and dress quickly afterwards.
How to choose your swimming gear
Work from the water you swim in.How to choose your swimming gear
Work from the water you swim in.
• Racing triathlon? Start with a triathlon wetsuit. Orca's Athlex and Apex ranges are split into Float, Flow and Flex by how much lift your legs need.
• Ocean or bay swims, squad sessions? A swim-first suit from the Orca Vitalis range: sleeveless or shorty for warm water, 3 mm TRN for most of the year, Vitalis Thermal for winter.
• Cold water? Add a thermal neoprene cap or hood, Hydro Booties or swim socks, gloves and a Heatseeker vest.
• Swimming outside the flags? A hi-vis cap and a safety buoy make you far easier for boats and paddlers to spot.
• Every swimmer: goggles that seal and don't fog, and a wetsuit shampoo to keep the salt out of your neoprene.
Australian water, all year
Queensland swimmers get most of the year in a sleeveless suit or bathers. Sydney, Melbourne and Tassie swimmers going through winter need warmth more than speed. Kit for both ends is listed below.
