Hey Surfer! When it comes to surfing, good equipment is essential. And on top of the list is of course the wetsuit. Whether you're looking for a classic wetsuit, a special wetsuit for women, a short neoprene shorty for women or a high-end ION wetsuit - we at surfpirates.com have everything your water sports heart desires!
Ah, the shorty! Ideal for warmer temperatures and super stylish at the same time. But when is the right time to change the long wetsuit for a neoprene shorty ladies or men?
When it comes to wetsuits, the thickness of the neoprene is a crucial factor to ensure the appropriate thermal insulation in different water temperatures. The thickness of neoprene is usually expressed in millimeters (mm), and two numbers are often used, such as 4/3mm. The first number refers to the thickness of the neoprene on the body and the second on the arms and legs. We have summarized the different thicknesses in a degree table:
A suit in this thickness you choose best at temperatures of 20-25 degrees. Especially in the summer months, this neoprene thickness is very comfortable and offers a lot of flex!
The 4/3 mm neoprene is especially in northern Germany and Denmark a suit that you can wear well from June to September. It is noticeably warmer than the 3/2mm and still has very comfortable flex. Temperatures from 18-22 degrees are ideal!
The wetsuit that everyone should have in their quiver! Probably the best-selling neoprene thickness for all who want to get out on the water at the first rays of sunshine! With the high quality 5/3mm suits you can get into the water at 10 degrees. Up to 22 degrees this thickness is your ideal companion!
For you it's the season all year round? Then a suit with hood, so-called Neo Hoodies, may not be missing with you! Through an integrated hood comes significantly less water into the suit and a rinse cycle is much less unpleasant! Hooded wetsuits are available in 5/4mm and 6/5mm. With these suits you can from 0-15 degrees on the water!
The shorty is intended for high summer, or regions where it is often over 25 degrees. As a rule, shortys are 2mm thick and thus offer extreme flex and a very comfortable feel.
You follow the summer and choose your destination according to the best temperature? With the neoprene shirt you can from about 27 degrees on the water. On the bottom you just wear board shorts or bikini bottoms.
Fit is everything in a wetsuit! An ill-fitting suit will leave you cold and can also cause chafing. Here are some tips for choosing the perfect size:
Like a second skin! Especially for newbies this feeling is a bit uncomfortable at the beginning, but your suit should really fit skin tight. What many do not know, the suits usually widen after 5-10 times and are then about half a size larger!
You want to buy your own wetsuit and click through the different models and prices online? This is due to the different neoprene qualities, linings or even taped seams.
For example, there are 5/3mm wetsuits for a little more than 200 €, but also for almost 500 €! The suits for 200 € are enough for everyone who rather wants to go on the water in good weather and also can not go out several times a week. 5/3s for 300-500 € are much more flexible than those for 200 €, offer a higher wearing comfort and offer a longer durability! The expensive suits often also have a warm lining, which dries very quickly again and taped seams, which let less water into the suit!
