Get Wet And Wild This Summer: Choosing The Right Wetsuit. This entry was posted on April 30, 2014 by S2AS.
Summer is on its way, which means it’s time to hit the beach and catch the surf. If you’re a seasoned surfer or a complete newbie, you need to have the right wetsuit to style it out on the waves. Whether this is your first suit or you are just looking for an upgrade, there are a few things you need to think about before parting with your cash. Types You’ve probably seen or even worn at least one type of popular suit. If you are surfing in cold waters, then this is the best option to stay warm whilst hanging ten. Wetsuits are pretty difficult to get in and out of if you are not used to them.
Back zip suits might seem awkward, but they will usually have a wider opening, making them easier to slip in and out of. However, with a back zip you can sometimes get less flexibility and a loose collar which lets the water in, so you might want to choose a chest zip one instead. Size Quality A high quality wetsuit is going to last you again and again. Ronix Wakeboards 2014. This entry was posted on April 30, 2014 by S2AS.
