Volares V1 Children's Triathlon Wetsuit is designed specifically for swimming and triathlon. With fluro yellow arm and leg panels this suit is highly visible in the water, making it an ideal choice for open water swimming, triathlon and surf life saving. In a sea of black neoprene, you will be sure to stand out from the crowd.
The V1 is constructed from leading Japanese Yamamoto Neoprene. Unlike most neoprenes that are petroleum based, Yamamoto Neoprene is derived from limestone. The resulting cell structure absorbs dramatically less water, offering superior insulation and extreme flexibility ensure a huge range of motion while swimming. The transition leg panels allow for rapid suit removal, making transition1 that much easier.
The main body panels utilise 3mm Yamamoto neoprene. This provides warmth to the body while the enhanced buoyancy improves a swimmer’s overall body position. 2mm neoprene in the arm ensures a relaxed swimming stroke and reduces fatigue.
Volare has eliminated that claustrophobic feeling found in most swimming wetsuits by developing a low cut neckline that is both comfortable and watertight. Testing of competitor products established that unfinished or raw edge necklines, while comfortable did not provide longevity expected for triathletes and swimmers. The V1 therefore comes with a more durable rolled edge.
This kids triathlon wetsuit offers unbeatable performance, making it the best value for money junior wetsuit you’ll find on the market.

The inside word is that a wetsuit swim seems likely, this means that you need only the best wetsuit, so you can keep up with the top swimmers. Volare’s range of tri wetsuit will meet any need out there.
There are many great swimming spots our top recommendations are Southport Aquatic Centre where you can bake in the warm sun while swimming next to the race day swimming course. If you are after some open water swimming and don’t fancy the bull sharks in the broad water or fighting the surf at the beach then Lake Hugh Muntz in Mermaid Waters is a great place to swim, there is also a netted off section in the broad water next to Aqua Splash.
Fancy a hill climb on your bike then head into the hinterland up Beechmount for some epic climbs and even better downhill riding. You will come away feeling refreshed and calm from all the beauty the hinterland has to offer. Or if you are after a more relaxed ride then head towards the beach and cycle along the waterfront.
If you are looking for a running route away from the hustle and bustle of the busy Gold Coast streets, there is a beautiful 10k run from Southport Surf Club to The Spit and back, follow along the walkway or trail and listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the waves crashing and the birds chirping. Coombabah parklands also offers up some great trails away from traffic.
To get our coffee fix, you will find us at either Merlo in Ferry Road Brickworks or grabbing a coffee at our local The Roost on Johnston Street (they also do an epic pulled pork burrito), which is just around the corner from the Volare concept store.
After a grueling training session head to Lark in Main beach for an epic breakfast or if you're after something smaller then grab an acai bowl from the Juice bar in Ferry Road Markets or from The Fresh Bar at Pacific Fair.
After your nap you will need another coffee and snack and there are no better places to go then Raw Espresso, Alfreds, Dark Espresso, Paper Cup or Café on Hedges, they all have great coffee and yummy selections of food.
In your downtime, you’ll want to keep a low profile and rest up, so before the event why not come to visit us at our concept store or during the event at our expo stand we have a great range of triathlon wetsuits, swimming skins, and tri suits.
We would also recommend visiting one of the many Surf Clubs they are super easy to find, just head to the best looking beach and walk along it until you find one. You will be treated to picturesque view while you chow down some food or throw back a few local Balter beers.
Our favourite restaurants are Etsu, which makes the best Japanese be careful about just rocking up as this places is so popular you will have to book. Thai on Ferry in our opinion is the best Thai on the coast, make sure you try our favourite dish the panang curry. Bistro Chico is another favourite of ours serving up a mix of Australian, Mediterranean, and Asian tapers along with mains and cocktails.
Sunday morning markets at the Gold Coast Art Centre offer a great selection of local cuisine, enjoy a coffee and croissant while listening to some great local live music.
Need any more tips on where to swim, cycle, run, dine or chill out comment on this post and we will do our best to make sure your experience is one you won’t forget.
]]>The Volare V3 wetsuit is every triathlete's dream. The V3 wetsuit is designed for swimming and triathlon and it enhances your swimming while keeping you warm. It has to be felt to be believed.
The V3 construction is enhanced by Yamamoto’s latest Grey SCS Aerodrome. Delivering increased buoyancy, while the nano-coating reduces drag. The underarm flex panel allows for unrestricted swimming motion that has to be felt to be believed providing unparalleled mobility in the swim stroke.
Having feel for the water is paramount and the 1.5mm arm panels literally feel like a second skin. The thinner panels provides increased fell for water. Reducing the buoyancy in your arms results in less arm fatigue, as you’re not fighting the inherent buoyancy of a thicker neoprene during your swim stroke.
Volare has eliminated that “claustrophobic” feeling found in most swimming wetsuits, by developing a low cut neckline that is both comfortable and watertight. Testing of competitor products established that unfinished or raw edge necklines, while comfortable did not provide the longevity expected for triathletes and swimmers. Opting for an ultra-thin 1.5mm Yamamoto #40 neoprene, which offers the perfect blend of flexibility and longevity.
Fast swimming counts for nothing if you are stuck in T1. A YKK breakaway zipper allows you to quickly unzip and the addition of a 2mm panel insert into the lower leg dramatically improves wetsuit removal and transition speed.
Designed for a wide range of body types and activities, Volare understands that sometimes things need to be adjusted if we were all the same life would be no fun.
Heat seal seams in both the arms and legs, allow for up to 6cm of individual adjustment. The heated sealed seams allows for a clean cut and customisation of your suit.
]]>Volare’s waterproof Waist Pack is the safe way to take small valuables out with you in wet conditions. Perfect for any outdoor adventure, whether you plan on kayaking, supping, boating, cycling or going for a walk in wet conditions.
Constructed from tough durable materials (600D PVC Trapauline) that doesn’t hold you back from having fun on your adventure. The roll top closure system seals tightly keeping dust, sand, and water out while also making it suitable for quick submersion and it floats when dropped into water.
A hidden size pouch opens up to create a water bottle or torch holder. A whistle clip and reflective logo have been added to attract attention, keeping you safe if you find your self in trouble.

Over the weekend I had my first experience wearing the Volare Swim Skin at the Noosa Tri 2018 and let me just say I had an epic weekend.
On Friday afternoon I competed in the 1000m swim which starts at the north end of Noosa Main Beach and finishes at the Noosa Surf Club. The course is in an ‘M’ shape which means there is a small run in the middle, and running is not my forte.
At the halfway point I was sitting in fourth as I had a bit of a dodgy start, so I had to make my way through the field. By the last can I was first equal and to my dads disappointment I missed a wave and crossed the finish line second.
On Sunday I was lucky enough to have two awesome team mates Jacqui Mengler-Mohr and Christie Winmill who along with me helped smash the women’s open teams event by over 10min.
Wearing the Volare Swim Skin was a HUGE advantage. No one else in the open women’s team field had one and I came out of the water 5min before the next competitor in our event. By reducing drag and enhancing body position Volare claim that their Swim Skin can improve swim times by up to 5 seconds per 100m. I needed all the advantage I could get with the 1k run into transition and judging by my time, and how comfortable I felt in the water, I’m a believer.
The Volare team has sourced the best quality fabric and technology out there which includes features such as, Italian hydrophobic material with Teflon coated surface which reduces drag, and reduces water absorption, a YKK Locking Zipper which allows for super fast transition times and no cords required. All seams are thermo bonded with taped which means no stitching and ridge lines, which improves the hydrodynamic profile and reduces chafing.
While it took a little time to slowly inch the Swim Skin up, and the compression means that it fits tighter than my wetsuit, the advantages of wearing the swim skin make it silly to not be wearing one.
To ensure longevity and to look after my Swim Skin so it’s kept in the best possible condition for my next race. I make sure to rinse the Swim Skin in cold clean water and leave it to dry out in the shade, and away from direct heat.
Before my race, I spoke to a few other competitors about the Swim Skin and everyone raved about the speed benefits as well as the sun protection benefits. Many of them wear the Swim Skin when they are out doing their lunch time training session to help protect their skin. If you don’t have a Volare Swim Skin I would recommend adding it to your Christmas wish list.

]]>The Volare Waterproof Large Phone Case has been developed to meet the needs of the adventurer, be it on land, or in water. Built with tough TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) material, it can withstand depths of up to 20 ft/6 meters for up to 60 minutes and holds an IP68 rating. This phone case is more than just protection for your phone, allowing you to snap photos, take videos and even take phone calls while using the case.
What does IP68 actually mean?
Well, IP stands for Ingress Protection, and IP ratings are used to define levels of resistance to things like dust, dirt and moisture. The first number tells you the resistance to solids like dust and dirt, while the second number relates to water resistance. The higher the number, the higher the resistance. With 6 being the max number for solids, and 8 being the max number for liquids, IP68 is as good as it gets.
Don’t some mobile phones have an IP rating already?
While some phones do have an IP rating, your mobile provider will tell you that it’s really only to give you some peace of mind should the unfortunate happen (eg you drop your phone in the toilet!). If you’re serious about phone protection, get a waterproof case!
The Volare IP68 phone case will take the worry out of your adventure, giving you the peace of mind to do what you love. Be it boating, camping, swimming, surfing, or walking through a rain forest the case will keep your phone protected from mud, sand, dirt, snow and water.
The Volare case allows your phone to be fully functional on land or on water, so you can stay connected with family, friends or emergency services if required.
Please note that while we do our best to make this the best phone case on the market, your phone signal will be lost and the touch screen won’t work while the phone and case are underwater.
]]>The Volare Waterproof VHF Case is made of the hard stuff, with strong TPU material and high frequency welded seams. This case will protect against water, sand, snow, dust, and anything else you can throw at it.
Designed with Surf Life Saving in mind the radio case fits both right and left-handed antennas. Front and back windows allow for clear visibility and functionality. Combine this with a fully adjustable 3-way harness, and your radio will always be fully functional, where you need it, when you need it, out in the elements.
The Volare VHF Case removes wind from calls and provides clear communication while sound and radio signal is unaffected. Allowing you to easily communicate with emergency services if required.
You can take the Volare VHF Case to depths of up to 6 meters or 20 ft. However, to give you peace of mind the case will float with your device in it (but make sure you test this in shallow water first!). It also comes with a handy three strap harness so you can't lose it in rough conditions.
Whether you are a Life Guard, Water Police, Coast Guard or just love being outdoors this fully waterproof, robust radio case won’t let you down.
]]>Let’s face it the word waterproof can be confusing, is it water resistant, rainproof, splash proof or waterproof? When Volare say their waterproof backpacks are 100% waterproof, they mean like all their dry bags they are so watertight they will actually float and even handle brief submersion.
This stylish 100% waterproof backpack is the ultimate, adventure capable dry bag. Designed to be at home in the sand, snow, ocean or simply cruising the streets on a rainy day. Available in two travel friendly sizes, 20 Litre and 40 Litre the backpacks feature an innovative hydration bladder pocket, making them ideal for longer adventures.
Built for adventure the robust backpacks feature fully welded seams, reflective logos, weatherproof zippers, roll top closure, 100% waterproof main compartment that can handle brief submersions, built in emergency whistle, ventilated back panel and multiple exterior pockets make this the go to bag for outdoor lovers. It even floats!
Designed on the Gold Coast Australia, this high-tech dry bag has become the go to 100% waterproof backpack for adventure enthusiasts.
Like most great innovations this waterproof backpack was born out of necessity and the simple desire to design a superior dry bag that could also hold a hydration bladder in a purpose-built pocket. The devils in the detail and its design features a reinforced bottom to handle sliding on rocks when canyoning. The main compartment is a 100% waterproof and features an internal zip pocket for organising smaller items and even a clip for your keys. The proven roll top waterproof closure ensures the main compartment is a 100% waterproof and can handle brief submersions. We recommend for added protection on extreme adventures like rafting, double bagging electronics or valuables. This can be done by simply adding a Volare dry tube as a pack liner or second layer of defense, against your backpack been accidentally held underwater for extended periods, during an event like a capsize and provides added peace of mind.
On the outside of the backpack, you will find two large mesh pockets on either side for drink bottles, sunglass cases or even shoes. A vented pocket at the very front of the bag is designed to hold any wet items, snacks or even our waterproof phone or radio cases. Directly behind it is a splash proof side pocket which is also fitted for small items that you may need to fetch at a moment’s notice and provides protection from the rain.
Equipped with an emergency whistle clip on the sternum strap, should you need to attract attention and reflective logos to enhance visibility should your adventure run out of light.
With a waterproof rating of IP66, we know that this is the best waterproof bag of 2019.
