Triathlete magazine features a two-page editorial review of the Tracer Sayonara Swimskin by senior editor Jay Prasuhn. In the November issue, the editor tested the elite swimskin technology during the 2009 Solana Beach Triathlon in San Diego County.
“It was only 300 meters, but it was one of my best swims of the year…Warm enough, flexy enough, I experienced a swim much greater than I expected,” says the senior editor.

Tracer Sayonara and Tracer Triathlon also appeared in the Run, Bike, and Swim feature of October’s Austin Fit Magazine.
Top contenders of the Kona Ironman World Championship will race in the Tracer Sayonara Swimskin including 2-time defending Ironman world champion Chrissie Wellington and 70.3 Ironman world champion Andy Potts.
Made of the Yamamoto Biorubber Mark III, Tracer Sayonara is a lightweight super composite skin featuring Titanium alloy for thermoregulation and a hydrogren-bonded surface to reduce drag. For more details CLICK HERE.
