Engineered for sprinters, the new Speedo Fastsin LZR Pure Intent 2.0 kneeskin offers ultimate water repellency.With coating technology engineered by Lamoral Space Tech, the Speedo Fastskin LZR Intent 2.0 delivers the performance you need again and again to make you feel unstoppable in every race. The Lamoral coating provides long-lasting water repellency moving through the water with less drag.Lamoral coating is a breakthrough technology for racing swimsuits, it's unique in the way that the coating remains "active" for much longer than other solutions.But how does it work? The creators of the technology use this analogy:"It's a chemical thing." Imagine our coating as a forest. We put a forest of trees on the textile. The leaves of the trees are water-repellent. A polymer is a chain of monomers and what you then see is that the higher the forest and the more foliage that's on the trees, the more water-repellent the coating is. What we do: We've optimized the roots of the coatings so that when you wash the trees, they don't fall over and wash off. The trees stay upright with the water-repellent leaves facing up. With other coatings, the trees fall over and the leaves no longer face upwards but next to the stump. And water and rain pass through the fabric. In our coating, the morphology of water-repellent groups remains more or less the same." - Joris van Tongerloo (Business Developer, Lamoral Coatings)Three fabric zones with bonded ergonomic seams connect key muscle groups for faster power return.The Speedo Intent 2.0 has textured fabric zones that target drag reduction so you get the very best from your swim, and the triple fabric construction with bonded seams is designed to enable greater movement.The closed back offers greater coverage which can improve performance and may be preferred by swimmers with straight backs.FeaturesCompressive dual layers and ergonomic seam construction designed to connect key muscle groups for greater power returnTriple fabric construction with bonded seams designed for greater range of movementNew textured fabric zones target drag reduction for optimal performanceNew Lamoral Coating - for long-lasting water repellencyNew band technology designed to support a powerful leg kickPrecision straps for enhanced comfortThis product has been fully approved by FINA.
