FAQs
Can I use this wetsuit in a swimming pool?
Yes, but be aware that chlorine in pool water is more damaging to neoprene than saltwater. Ensure you rinse it extra thoroughly with fresh water after pool use.
How should the wetsuit fit?
A performance wetsuit should feel snug, like a second skin, without restricting your breathing or circulation.
Is this suitable for winter surfing?
The full-length design provides significant warmth, but suitability depends on local water temperatures and your personal cold tolerance.
How do I store the wetsuit long-term?
Always store it flat or on a thick, specialized wetsuit hanger in a cool, dry, and dark location.
Can I machine wash the suit?
No. Never machine wash or tumble dry your wetsuit, as the heat and agitation will permanently damage the neoprene.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting into the wetsuit
Ensure your skin is dry before putting it on, or use a plastic bag over your feet and hands to help them slide through the cuffs more easily.
Visible white marks on the surface
This is likely dried salt. Rinse the suit thoroughly in fresh water and let it air dry in the shade.
Feeling cold during use
Check that the zip is fully closed and the seals at the neck and limbs are lying flat against the skin to prevent excessive water flushing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your wetsuit, always rinse it with fresh, cool water after every use to remove salt and debris. Avoid using harsh detergents or drying the suit in direct, intense sunlight, as this can degrade the neoprene material over time. When putting on the suit, avoid using fingernails to pull at the material, as this can cause tears. Store the suit on a wide, non-metal wetsuit hanger in a cool, shaded place to maintain the shape of the shoulder panels.
