Two great steps forward in neoprene inovation for surfing wetsuits.
The primary reason for wearing surfing wetsuits is to keep warm. Therefore, very close attention should be focused on learning just exactly what you should have for your individual use.
Take into consideration how much surfing you will be doing, temperatures of the water in the areas you will be using, the fit and quality of your surfing wetsuit.
The best suit for serious surfing is a steamer, a full suit that zips up the back. A zip in the front would be uncomfortable to lie on when paddling and water would be pushed in by the waves.
Your suit should fit tight but not be stressed. The idea is to take a layer of water into the cell structure of the suit that will be warmed by your body heat. Once that happens you don't want your warm water to be flushed out and replaced by cold! Neoprene stretched more when it is wet so be sure to allow for that.
A great step forward in neoprene inovation for surfing wetsuits is a shiny metalic barrier between the neoprene and the nylon lining. This titanium layer has cut out practically all hear loss by radiation.
Pay attention to your surfing wetsuits seams.
Seams are no longer the problem they were at one time. We have seen improvements that make overlock absolete Although you will possibly still
find them on cheap or older suits. These are mostly used for rentals.
Blind stitch was the next step in the surfing wetsuits manufacturing. This is where the neoprene is joined with glue before being sewn. This was much better but still left much to be desired.
New Double Seam weld surfing wetsuits
The O'Neill Co. has developed new double seam weld surfing wetuits. This exclusive wetsuit uses a high grade urethane applied inside and outside in liquid form to make a stitchless seam.
Play close attention to all surfing wetsuits tears, snags, stretched seams, and where the salt water begins to eat away the glue. Repairs need to be made as soon as a problem is detected and be sure your suit is washed clean, dried, and properly hung each time you use it.
