All Water Sports Worldwide
From cold-water parking lot surf changes to solo dive boat deck gear-ups and race-morning triathlon preparation—Gliders™ eliminate cuff suction (μ = 0.05) so you save 100% of your energy for the water.
Select Your Sport Discipline
Cold Parking Lot Changes
The Pain Point: Struggling into a stiff 5mm or 6mm cold-water winter suit in freezing, windy beach parking lots burns through body energy before your first paddle-out. Worst of all, yanking rubber with cold fingers leads to fingernail punctures in expensive smoothskin chest panels.
The Gliders Solution: Gliders™ allow your feet and hands to slide through narrow wrist and ankle cuffs in under 15 seconds without skin friction. You get changed fast without shivering or risking fingernail damage.
- ✓ Fast parking lot changes in biting ocean wind
- ✓ Protects $400+ neoprene from fingernail tears
- ✓ Prevents seam blowouts on narrow 5mm ankle cuffs
Independent Boat Deck Gear-Up
The Pain Point: Donning thick 7mm dive suits or thermal lycra base skins on crowded, rocking boat decks often requires assistance from a dive buddy. Additionally, lycra dive skins frequently twist and bunch up into painful pinch points under heavy BCD straps.
The Gliders Solution: Delivers complete 100% solo gear-up independence. Gliders™ glide thermal underlayers cleanly into place without twisting, ensuring smooth comfort under heavy tanks and BCD harness straps.
- ✓ Complete solo independence on rocking boat decks
- ✓ Prevents thermal dive skins from twisting under BCDs
- ✓ Effortless re-entry on damp skin between back-to-back dives
Pre-Race Morning Prep & Energy Conservation
The Pain Point: Struggling into a tight triathlon speed-suit on race morning exhausts vital glycogen and stamina before you even enter the water. Trying to yank fragile 1.5mm–3mm smoothskin rubber creates severe risks of tearing expensive race suits with fingernails.
The Gliders Solution: Triathletes use Gliders during race-morning prep to slide into suits in seconds—preserving precious physical energy while aligning shoulder panels accurately for unrestricted swim stroke rotation.
- ✓ Conserves stamina and muscle glycogen before the swim start
- ✓ Protects delicate 1.5mm–3mm smoothskin from fingernail cuts
- ✓ Ensures proper panel alignment for full shoulder stroke reach
- ✓ 100% dry and clean—no messy body glide or petroleum gels needed
Latex & Neoprene Gasket Protection
The Pain Point: Pushing hands and feet through tight latex wrist and ankle gaskets on whitewater drysuits creates high friction. Forcing joints through latex can tear expensive seals or stretch them permanently out of shape.
The Gliders Solution: Gliders™ create a smooth protective sleeve layer that slides hands and feet cleanly through fragile latex gaskets without over-stretching or catching on rings and watches.
- ✓ Prevents tears in expensive latex drysuit gaskets
- ✓ Slides over watches and jewelry without snagging rubber
- ✓ Extends drysuit gasket lifespan for cold whitewater runs
Heavy Winter Steamer Assistance
The Pain Point: Kitesurfers and wing foilers spend extended hours in high-wind conditions wearing thick 5/4mm or 6/5mm cold-water suits. Fitting neoprene over ankles when rigging kites on sandy beaches gets sand trapped inside cuffs, irritating skin.
The Gliders Solution: Gliders™ protect skin from sand abrasion during entry and ensure boots and cuffs slide on quickly so you can focus on rigging lines safely.
- ✓ Fast suit changes on windy, sandy launch beaches
- ✓ Prevents sand grit from scraping skin inside tight cuffs
- ✓ Easily fits under 6mm winter suits and impact vests
Smooth Ankle Cuff & Bootie Entry
The Pain Point: Long-distance SUP paddlers require flexible 3mm–4mm suits that seal snugly at wrists and ankles to keep cold water out during fall and winter touring.
The Gliders Solution: Gliders™ allow paddlers to slide their feet effortlessly past narrow ankle seals, ensuring suit cuffs sit smoothly above neoprene booties without bunching or restricting circulation.
- ✓ Smooth entry without stretching narrow SUP ankle seals
- ✓ Prevents cuff bunching over neoprene paddle booties
Slipway Gear-Up Efficiency
The Pain Point: Dinghy sailors and windsurfers spend energy rigging boats on slipways while wearing thick long-john suits or drysuits with restrictive ankle seals.
The Gliders Solution: Cuts slipway prep time in half, giving sailors quick, hassle-free suit changes before launching into competitive regattas.
- ✓ Quick changes on crowded club slipways
- ✓ Preserves energy for long hiking and trapeze sessions
