Lycra Rib

Lycra Rash Bibs for Dinghy Sailing

Lycra rash bibs are an essential technical garment for fleet training and racing: lightweight, breathable and fast-drying, they are worn over a wetsuit or lycra top to ensure visibility and identification on the water. They are widely used in sailing schools and clubs to distinguish groups and individual athletes.

Made from stretch fabric with an over-size cut, rash bibs slip easily over any layer without restricting movement during manoeuvres and hiking out. Bright colours and high-visibility panels improve safety at sea, while flat-lock seams prevent chafing.

Available in one-size or dedicated sizing, they are ideal on every dinghy — from the Optimist and RS Feva up to ILCA, 470 and 49er — for both competitive racing and group training. Leading brands: Zhik, Vaikobi, GUL and Musto.
