Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this wetsuit suitable for winter surfing?
No, this is a shorty design meant for warm-water activities and does not provide enough coverage for cold weather.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to standard UK dress sizing, ensuring the suit fits snugly against your skin to be most effective.
Can I machine wash this wetsuit?
No, you should only hand wash it with fresh water and air dry it away from direct sunlight.
Does the suit protect against jellyfish stings?
While it covers your core and torso, it does not cover arms and legs, so it only provides partial protection.
How should I store the wetsuit?
Store it on a wide, plastic wetsuit hanger in a cool, dry place, avoiding folding it for long periods to prevent creases.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping or fastening
Check the zipper track for trapped sand or salt crystals; rinse thoroughly with fresh water and clear debris.
Suit feels loose in the water
Adjust the fastening system for a tighter fit or check that the size corresponds correctly to your body measurements.
Material stiffness
Soak the suit in cool, fresh water to soften the neoprene and ensure you are not using harsh detergents.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent range of motion due to the short-leg and short-arm cut
- Easy to put on and take off compared to full-length suits
- Provides essential protection against abrasion and minor impacts
- Form-fitting design minimizes water intake for better thermal efficiency
Cons
- Not suitable for cold water as it leaves limbs exposed
- Offers less UV protection for arms and legs than full suits
- Requires precise sizing to maintain the intended snug fit
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a long lifespan, always rinse your Gul Wetsuit Shorties with fresh, clean water immediately after every use, especially after exposure to salt or chlorine. Avoid leaving the suit to dry in direct, intense sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the material over time; instead, hang it in a shaded, well-ventilated area. When putting the suit on, ensure the fastening system is adjusted properly so it is snug but not restrictive. Check for any sand or debris inside the fasteners periodically to maintain a secure grip.
