AROA is designed for those who create costumes for gymnastics, figure skating, acrobatics, dance, and other performance sports. AROA handles the complex technical side of pattern drafting, allowing you to focus entirely on creativity and bringing your unique vision to life. This tool is an essential companion for experienced designers and professional studios, as well as coaches and parents who sew independently. Professionals will appreciate the speed and consistency of results, while beginners will value the ability to work with a proven foundation without needing to master complex drafting techniques from scratch. Precise Patterns Without the Hassle The AROA system accounts for all the nuances of sportswear construction: perfect body fit, freedom of movement, and clean, aesthetic lines. You build patterns based on individual measurements, ensuring an impeccable fit and minimizing the need for multiple fittings. Streamlined Workflow and Universal Formats Creating a pattern takes just minutes: select your base type, enter measurements, and instantly receive a ready-to-use file. Export your results in the format that works best for you: • PDF A0 and A4 — for plotter or home printer output; • DXF — for professional CAD systems; • PNG and PSD — for digital sketching and detailed design rendering in graphic editors. AROA is your digital atelier, making the process of creating sportswear faster, more accurate, and more inspiring. Let the algorithms handle the technical calculations while you focus on what matters most: the beauty of movement and the expressiveness of form. Start creating your perfect costumes with AROA today!
