FAQs

What is Yulex rubber?

Yulex is a plant-based, sustainable natural rubber harvested from FSC-certified forests, offering the same performance as traditional neoprene with a lower environmental impact.

What does the 4/3 designation mean?

The 4/3 thickness indicates that the suit uses 4mm rubber in the core/torso for maximum warmth and 3mm rubber in the limbs for increased flexibility.

How should I clean the suit?

Use fresh, cold water to rinse the suit inside and out. Avoid detergents, bleach, and washing machines, as these can damage the rubber.

Is the back zip easy to operate?

The S-Lock back zip is designed for a balance between easy entry and water resistance, featuring a long pull cord that makes it manageable to close independently.

Will the knee pads affect my balance?

No, the Powrtex4 knee pads are designed to be flexible and low-profile, providing grip and protection without compromising your stance on the board.

Can I use this suit in a swimming pool?

It is not recommended, as chlorine can cause the rubber material to degrade significantly faster than salt water.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting into the suit

Ensure your skin is dry before entering and use a plastic bag over your feet to help them slide through the leg openings more easily.

Water flushing through the neck

Check that the Pro GlideSkin collar is lying flat against the skin without any hair or base layers tucked underneath, which can break the seal.

Stiff zipper movement

Rinse the zipper path thoroughly with fresh water to remove dried salt crystals and apply a specialized zipper lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sustainable construction using plant-based Yulex rubber
  • Excellent thermal retention from specialized inner linings
  • High-durability seams reinforced with internal G-Tape
  • Contoured 3D fit offers superior flexibility and freedom of movement
  • Effective sealing systems prevent water flushing

Cons

  • Back-zip entry can be slightly harder to reach than front-zip designs
  • Requires precise sizing to ensure the S-Seal cuffs function perfectly
  • Limited to specific temperature ranges typical of 4/3mm suits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Yulex wetsuit, proper maintenance is essential. Always rinse the suit thoroughly with fresh water after every session to remove salt, sand, and organic debris. Hang the suit to dry inside-out on a wide plastic hanger away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can degrade the rubber over time. When putting the suit on, avoid using fingernails to pull at the material; instead, use the pads of your fingers to prevent small tears. Store the suit in a cool, dry place and never leave it folded in a damp gear bag, as this can encourage the growth of bacteria and compromise the integrity of the seams.
