Wetsuits

A Wetsuit is a must if you are the average surfer and want to surf all year round. You are one lucky surfer if you are fortunate to be able to wear your boardshorts all the time, or rich enough to follow the summer all year round. Wetsuit technology has come on an awful long way since the first restricting rubber fetish outfits. Now they are super light, super stretch and some don't even have zips! Wetsuits are made from neoprene, a stretchy synthetic rubber material. The Wettie (like that - cool surfer speak!) is made out of several of these pieces of neoprene stitched together to cover the desired body parts. Wetsuits come as shorties (the Wetsuit has short legs and arms), and full suits. The neoprene comes in different thickness', from 2 to 6 mm. The thicker the neoprene the warmer the suit.
