You stay where you can touch thebottom, in tiny waves or broken waves. You surf for the pleasure of being inthe water and for the feeling you get from it. During your sessions, you oftenfall but you fall in waves that are not very powerful. We have designed a widerange of products for you, to suit your occasional practice and your bodyshape. ; How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 1): The first selectioncriterion when choosing a surfing wetsuit is the water temperature. Watertemperature varies according to the location and the time of the year.Systematically make sure that the water temperature at your spot correspondsto the recommended temperature range: Warm water above 20°C. Temperate waterbetween 17 and 22°C. Cold water between 12 and 17°C. Very cold water between 7and 12°C. Visit the site seatemperature.org to find out the temperature ofyour spot. ; How to choose the right wetsuit (Part 2): The 2nd criterion totake into account is the length of your sessions. If your sessions last lessthan an hour, the 100 models will be suitable. For up to 2 hours, opt for the500 models and for up to 3 hours, the 900 models. Compared to the 100 models,the 500 models will be warmer (and more watertight) and more efficient atreducing fatigue (more freedom of movement) and irritation. The same is truefor the 900 models compared with the 500 models. NB: the 900 models are easierto put on. ; Choose the right size: To make the most of the features of yourwetsuit, it is necessary to choose the correct size. A surfing wetsuit shouldbe a very tight fit and there should be no visible folds. When dry, it isperfectly normal to feel like it is too tight, this discomfort disappears assoon as the wetsuit gets wet. If you choose a wetsuit that is too big, foldswill appear, you will experience irritation and thermal insulation will bereduced (letting in water). Try it on before you buy it! ; Fastening: Our zipsand fastenings are laboratory-tested in order to ensure an optimal lifespanand good resistance to salt water.We have put the zip at the back of thewetsuit for more comfort during surf sports (when lying down to paddle).
