The PICTA Multisport. Aka arguably the lightest, warmest & most durable wetsuit ever made, pound-for-pound:

Best-in-class, limestone-based & 99% water impermeable OG Optimum Technology rubber (via the Yamamoto Corporation in Osaka, Japan), in combination with an exclusive form of NASA Aerogel (via a 4MM / 2MM / 1.5MM format).

Note: Aerogel is among the most insulating materials ever made by humankind

WHY WE USE NASA'S AEROGEL INSULATION TECHNOLOGY

Aerogel is a game-changing insulation material. Its ability to efficiently trap heat and resist temperature extremes give it other-worldly functional characteristics (in a wetsuit or otherwise). 

NASA uses aerogels for insulating both its space craft and space suits. And the U.S. Navy uses Aerogel to protect its divers and other elite units. 

Point being: Aerogel’s exceptional thermal insulating properties, combined with its lightweight nature, make it an ideal choice for protecting delicate instruments (or human beings) from extreme temperatures

WHAT MAKES AEROGEL A GAME CHANGER

WARMER

Aerogel is an effective thermal insulator because it almost completely nullifies two of the three methods of heat transfer – conduction (Aerogel is mostly composed of insulating gas) and convection (its microstructure prevents net gas movement)

LIGHTER

Aerogel is composed of up to 99.8% air — making it one of the most effective insulators on earth. In addition to its exceptional thermal insulation abilities, Aerogel is incredibly lightweight: with a density close to air

STRONGER

Despite its ethereal appearance and “blue smoke” nickname, Aerogel has top-tier mechanical strength because of its fiber reinforcement process

A FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND TO THE WETSUIT MARKETPLACE

A durable everyday surf suit that is patterned similarly to a Triathlon suit for swim racing.

Unlike standard Triathlon suits that are essentially designed for "race day only" -- this Multisport product features knee pads, an internal floodgate and a low-profile external key pocket (for keys or gel).

The PICTA Multisport is mission-ready for either the competitive Triathlete arena or a variety of water-loving pastimes

FUNCTIONALLY SUPERIOR

Different than standard surf suits, The PICTA Multisport also offers a greater range of lateral movement and is also engineered for a faster entry and change-out speed (for users with tight shoulders or who are on the clock and against the competition).

Functional for swimming but warm and rugged enough for Surfing, Stand-Up Paddling, Kiting, Foiling & other over-the-beach activities.

Like an audiophile owning Dylan's Blonde On Blonde, The PICTA Multisport represents a necessary (and functionally superior) addition to any self-respecting wetsuit quiver
