TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
YOU ARE AN ADVANCED SURFER
Surfing is one of your favourite sports and you surf regularly in warm water. During your sessions, you paddle out to the line-up and either duck dive or turtle roll, depending on whether you are on a shortboard or a longboard. You often wipe out and you are used to being thrown about underwater. You want your swimwear to stay in place with each of your movements and not get in your way when paddling.
BODY SHAPE
The BETTY swimsuit was designed for advanced surfers surfing waves up to a meter.
The feminine design of the top stays in place in the waves. Its open back allows for optimal freedom of movement when paddling.
Foam inserts keep this swimsuit modest for teens. They are removable, leaving the choice to the wearer.
STAYS IN PLACE IN THE WAVES: THE TEST
We design swimsuits that promise to stay in place in the waves. To test them, we use a panel of at least 12 female surfers with different body shapes who will follow a test protocol in a pool at our design offices in Hendaye. This protocol aims to reproduce the sensations experienced by surfers when being thrown around by a wave. If this test is conclusive, we go surfing in the sea to test our swimwear in real conditions.
WHAT ARE PADDED CUPS? AVAILABLE IN SIZES 12 YEARS AND UP
A pad is a piece of foam that can be inserted into the swimsuit. It gives teens the option of an extra level of modesty. Interviews and observations have shown us that it’s not always easy for girls to accept their bodies during this time in their lives. The pads keep them from revealing more than they want to when the swimsuit is wet.
The pads are removable, leaving it up to the wearer whether to leave them in your take them out.

DRY SIZING AND WET SIZING
To ensure a perfect fit in the water, it is important to choose the right size while you are dry because once they are in the water, swimsuits become looser. We therefore recommend you buy the correct size. The swimsuit needs to fit snugly against your body in the fitting room, you should feel supported. The elastane contained in certain components used in the design of our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.
