The cut and paneling are often optimized for a specific activity.A. SURF WETSUITSFocus: Maximum flexibility in the shoulders and back for paddling. Warmth is secondary to mobility.Key Features: Often made with the stretchiest neoprene (like Japanese Yamamoto limestone). Seam placement is designed to

A. FULL SUITThis is the classic, all-over coverage wetsuit.Description: Covers the entire body: arms, legs, and torso.Best For: Cold to very cold water. This is the go-to for most surfers, divers, and triathletes in water temperatures below ~65°F (18°C).Key Feature: Maximum warmth and protection fro

A wetsuit is a type of clothing that is designed to provide thermal insulation to the wearer in water. These suits are made from neoprene, a type of synthetic rubber that is lightweight and flexible. Neoprene has excellent insulation properties, making it an ideal material for wetsuits. In this arti

Short wetsuitsAlso known as spring suits or shorties, this style is cut off at the knees and elbows. (Note that "spring" is definitely more Southern California spring than Canadian spring.) The relatively thin material and short arms make for easy paddling. This is great when it's too cold to surf i

Start with Water Temperature: Use the chart as a baseline.

1. Warmer Material The highly porous structure of limestone neoprene means that the material is filled with tiny air cells formed by closed cells. In fact, it has about 30% more air cells than other rubber materials. This has several advantages, including a warmer material. To match the warmth provi

OIL-BASED NEOPRENENeoprene is a synthetic rubber first developed by DuPont in the 1930s. It's made by mixing together melted polychloroprene chips, a foaming agents and pigments, then baking the mixture together to form a thick sponge. Traditionally, petroleum products have been used to make polychl

The main difference is in the material and function. Wetsuits are made from rubber neoprene and are designed to keep you warm when wet, but unlike dry suits, they are not waterproof. So if you have a loose-fitting wetsuit you will catch a cold. Tight-fitting wetsuits are ideal for cold water surfing

The Navy SEALs are elite members of the United States Navy's special operations forces, based on land, sea and air. The force is trained to fight both above and below the water, but is best known for its underwater capabilities. Specialized diving equipment enables the SEALs to work effectively in b

The they are often to use together for a wetsuit in the real production, there are several combinations we often use, such as:1) FLATLOCK + SPOT TAPED: this can enhance the durability in the critical positions.2) GBS INSIDE + GBS OUTSIDE or GDBS: this is for thicker wetsuit to enhance the durability
