This swimsuit top is designed for advanced surfers who ride all types of waves.
ADVANCED SURFER
Surfing is your favourite sport and you regularly surf in warm waters.During your sessions, you paddle out to the line-up and either duck dive or turtle roll, depending on whether you're on a shortboard or a longboard.You surf waves bigger than one metre and can perform tricks.You often wipe out and are used to being tossed around underwater.You want your swimsuit to stay in place with each of your movements and not hinder you when paddling.
Bustier shape
We created the Baha shorty so that young girls who surf can surf without worrying about losing their swimsuit in the waves.With its crossed back straps and wide elastic under the bust, the swimsuit is designed to give freedom of movement while paddling.
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 female surfers with different body shapes who follow a testing protocol in a swimming pool at our design offices in Hendaye, South West France.This protocol aims to reproduce the sensations experienced by surfers when they are tossed around by a wave.If this test is conclusive, we go surf at sea to test our swimsuits in real conditions.
What are padded cups?
A padded cup is a piece of foam inserted into a swimsuit.So that our customers decide whether or not to keep them, the cups are completely removable from the swimsuit.Only for sizes 12/13 years and 14/15 years
You are free to add the cup or not.The main idea behind this padding is to protect the modesty of young adolescent girls.Padded cups conceal the nipples, which can be seen when the swimsuit is wet.
This is not a PAD to enhance the body.
KNOWN SWIMSUIT SIZES FOR GIRLS
At Decathlon, we design swimsuits for young surfers by taking their height into account. This is why we systematically link the child's height to the size, as age is not enough to guarantee the correct size.Two 10-year-old girls can be completely different in height, weight and shape and have different measurements.We also recommend that you try on the swimsuit if possible.
Swimwear sizes for our girls
Here is the link between age and height on our swimwear labels:8/9 years: from 133 to 142 cm
10/11 years: from 143 to 150 cm
12/13 years: from 151 to 160 cm
14/15 years: from 161 to 169 cm
Dry size and wet size
To ensure a perfect fit in the water, it is important to choose the right size while dry, because once in the water, swimsuits become looser.Therefore, we recommend that you buy the correct size.A swimsuit should fit well to your body in the changing room and you should feel supported.The elastane content in some components used in the design of our swimsuits softens and relaxes in the water.
Looking to exchange a swimsuit
Isn't the size or style right for you?Do you want to exchange it at your Decathlon store?No problem, just make sure you don't cut off the swimsuit tag in case you exchange it.
