FAQs
What temperature is this wetsuit suitable for?
The 3mm XT3 is designed for moderate temperatures found in the Spring and Autumn. It is not designed for winter sea temperatures.
Can I use this for swimming?
Yes, the super-stretch sleeves and seamless underarm design are specifically included to make swimming and paddling more comfortable.
How do I store the wetsuit?
Store it out of direct sunlight on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent creases and material breakdown.
Does this suit provide sun protection?
Yes, the material is certified with UPF 50+ protection, shielding you from harmful UV rays.
Why are there mesh panels on the chest?
The mesh panels are designed to reduce wind chill, keeping you warmer when you are out of the water or riding the wind.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up the suit
Ensure the internal protective flap is smoothed out so it does not catch in the zipper teeth. Do not force the zip.
Water flushing into the suit
Adjust the glide skin collar to ensure a snug fit and ensure the neck velcro is securely fastened.
Stiffness or salt buildup on the zipper
Rinse the zipper thoroughly with fresh water and apply a dedicated wetsuit-safe zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your TWF XT3 lasts, always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every use, especially after exposure to salt or chlorine. Avoid leaving the suit in direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent UV-induced material degradation, and store it in a cool, shaded area on a wide-shouldered hanger. When putting the suit on, avoid using fingernails, as these can easily tear the neoprene material. Ensure the zip is fully engaged and the velcro lock is secured before entering the water to maintain the suit's insulating seal.
