The All-New Mach 1: Versatility Without Limits
The World’s Most Versatile Wetsuit, Designed for Every Stroke.
Whether you’re a city swimmer diving into the river or a coastal explorer taking on the sea, the Mach 1 (formerly the Dare2swim) is built for total freedom. While most wetsuits force you into a specific style, the Mach 1 is one of the only wetsuits in the world engineered to feel just as natural for freestyle as it does for breaststroke.
Why the Mach 1 is Your Go-To All-Rounder:
-
The Dual-Stroke Advantage: Most wetsuits have too much leg buoyancy, making them only suited to freestyle. The Mach 1 features calibrated buoyancy—decreased in the hips and legs to allow for both a powerful freestyle and breaststroke kick, and the increase in the chest thickness (5.0mm) gives you extra leverage and lift during your stroke.
-
Enhanced Siding for Natural Movement: Our new siding updates ensure that your body moves fluidly. Whether you are reaching for a freestyle catch or pulling through a breaststroke cycle, the suit adapts to your rhythm, not the other way around.
-
Adventure-Ready Durability: Constructed from DuraStretch™ Limestone Neoprene, this suit is tough enough for everyday lake use, paddleboarding, and a variety of water sports, yet flexible enough for competitive swimming.
-
All-Day Comfort: Featuring our signature single-layer neck closure, you can say goodbye to "wetsuit burn." The soft, low-profile design prevents chafing, while the high-quality YKK zipper makes it easy to transition from land to water in seconds.
