As female surfers of all levels, we have designed, this swimsuit for beginner surfers surfing in broken waves.

YOU ARE A BEGINNER SURFER

You are learning to surf or surf only a few times a year, during your holidays or a surf trip. You stay where you can touch the bottom, in tiny waves or broken waves. You surf for the pleasure of being in the water and for the feeling you get from it. During your sessions, you often fall but you fall in waves that are not very powerful. We have designed a wide range of swimwear for you, to suit your occasional practice and your body shape.

ACTIVE AT THE BEACH!

Whether you be a surfer or enjoy bathing in the sea, you don’t want to lose your swimsuit! This is why we test all our swimsuits in the waves. Each model is designed for surfing and perfectly suits other water sports: stand-up paddle boarding, sailing, kite surfing, bathing, etc.

BODY SHAPE

Ideal for learning to surf in broken waves, stand up paddle cruising or snorkelling. With their slightly loose fit and low-rise waist, Tana boardshorts suit all body shapes. The length of these women’s bathing shorts is rather short and doesn't visually ""cut"" the leg, which creates a nice figure. The cord is purely aesthetic.

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 test protocol in a pool at our design offices in Hendaye, southwest France. 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.

DO YOU WANT TO EXCHANGE YOUR BOARDSHORTS?

Is the size or style not suitable for you? would you like to exchange it at your Decathlon store? No problem, just be sure not to cut off the label of the swimsuit in case you want to exchange it.

OLAIAN, DECATHLON'S SURF BRAND

Based in Hendaye, in southwest France, OLAIAN is Decathlon's new surfing and bodyboarding brand. In our offices at the water's edge, we can design a swimsuit and then on the same day test it directly in the sea to check it stays in place in the waves.

A SCORE TO COMPARE THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF PRODUCTS

The environmental impact of the product is calculated over its entire life cycle with different indicators. An overall score (ABCDE) is attributed to help you easily identify the products with the best environmental performance by comparing products of the same type with one another (t-shirts, trousers, backpacks, etc.).Decathlon has voluntarily opted to apply this environmental labelling scheme.For more information, visit:
