Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this wetsuit suitable for winter surfing?
The 2.5mm thickness is best suited for spring, summer, and autumn temperatures. It may not provide enough warmth for mid-winter conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
A wetsuit should fit like a second skin. It should be snug, but not so tight that it restricts your breathing or full range of motion.
Can I use this in a chlorinated pool?
Yes, but be aware that chlorine can degrade neoprene faster than salt water. Ensure you rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh water immediately after use.
Does the suit provide sun protection?
Yes, it is rated UPF 50+, which blocks over 98% of harmful UV radiation.
How should I store the wetsuit?
Always store it on a wide hanger in a cool, dry, and shaded area. Avoid folding the suit for long periods as this creates permanent creases in the neoprene.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up the suit
Ensure the internal flap is flat against your skin and not caught in the teeth of the zipper.
Water entering the suit
Flat locked stitching is not sealed; minor water ingress is normal. Ensure the neck and wrist openings are tight to minimize flushing.
Velcro closure keeps opening
Rinse the Velcro of any trapped sand or salt, which prevents the hook-and-loop mechanism from gripping effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your TWF Turbo Full Wetsuit, rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh, cold water after every use in the ocean. Salt crystals can act as an abrasive if left to dry inside the neoprene fibers. Always dry the suit in the shade; direct sunlight can cause the neoprene to become brittle and lose its elasticity over time. When storing, use a wide plastic hanger to avoid shoulder creases, and ensure the Velcro lock is closed to prevent it from snagging the fabric. To put on the suit, step in through the neck or legs and pull upwards, ensuring the torso is snug before zipping the back.
