Yes — the Propel is a dedicated open water wetsuit designed for buoyancy, visibility, and reduced drag in open water conditions including ocean, lake, and river swimming.
What is SCS coating?
Super Composite Skin (SCS) is a hydrodynamic coating applied to the neoprene that significantly reduces surface drag, helping you move faster through the water with less effort.

Rinse thoroughly in fresh water after each use. Hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or use harsh detergents. Store flat or loosely folded to preserve the neoprene.
