Shorties or spring suits are designed for warmer waters and usually use thin, flexible neoprene. Layer up with neoprene tops, vests, shorts or surf leggings to keep warm if you in the water a while. Shorties differ in thickness and limb length, so it’s easy to find an option for you. One thing they all have in common: they keep your core warm and they stay in place – no matter how big the wave. Recommended for water under 19 - 23 °C
Full suits are for when a shortie won’t cut it, available in different thicknesses to keep your whole body warm. Recommended for water under 19°C 3/2 Wetsuits are very common. These summer suits are ideal for water temperatures between 15°C and 20°C. A 3 mm suit with a good thermal lining and wind-repellent neoprene will also work in colder regions.
Find your thickness. Colder water = Thicker Suits
Thickness is measured in mm and listed in most product names as numbers separated by a /. The first number relates to the torso and the second to the limbs. A 4/3 wetsuit is 4 mm thick on the torso and 3 mm on arms and legs, for example. The material around the torso is thicker to keep your core warm, while it’s thinner on the limbs to keep you mobile. This guarantees a mix of warmth and flexibility for paddling and surfing. Check out our temperature table to choose what to wear.
