MANILA, Philippines - Speedo will provide Jessie Lacuna and Jasmine Alkhaldi with the brand’s most revolutionary technology – the Fastskin3 – when the Filipino tankers compete in this month’s Olympic Games in London.
A fully FINA (Fédération Internationale de Natation) approved innovation, Fastskin3 is a world’s first concept to revolutionize the sport of swimming – a cap, goggle and suit engineered to work together as one revolutionary Racing System – offering swimmers a cohesive, hydrodynamic solution to cut through the water with maximum efficiency.
Lacuna and Alkhaldi will see action in the 200m freestyle and 100m freestyle, respectively. “We’re so honored and proud to represent our country in the Olympics. We will do our best,” said Lacuna and Alkhaldi, who are currently training at the Surrey Sports Park in Guildford, UK in preparation for the Games.
The Speedo Fastskin3 Racing System offers unrivalled benefits to swimmers, including a full body passive drag reduction of 16.6 percent, an 11 percent improvement in the swimmer’s oxygen economy enabling them to swim stronger and longer, and a 5.2 percent reduction in body active drag to create the world’s fastest cap, goggle and suit ever.
