WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY

"It was pretty cool being out amongst the snow and ice in February here (Hokkaido, Japan), when everyone else was wearing $2000 5mm dry suits, and they just couldn't believe I was wearing a 4/3 wetsuit!" [more] Stephen McKean "I never thought I would write that I now relish the freezing days the South Atlantic can deliver: I have a competitive edge and will stay in the water much longer than anybody else around could ever manage with more rubber... Guys, you have changed my surfing life: I could never thank you enough." [more] Christophe Vegezzi

 

MATERIALS

• Yamamoto Limestone Neoprene: Yamamoto Neoprene has a nitrogen closed cell content of 94% — 23% higher than most competing materials — and with virtually no water absorption means the weight of this rubber remains nearly identical in wet or dry conditions, giving you more warmth than thicker wetsuits without the weight. It also means it dries quicker than other suits.

• MR 7000 Superstretch: The MAX is made in superstretch neoprene from head to toe. It is lightweight (the suit weighs a mere 1300grams), flexible (longation is 480-580% — compare that to the elongation of the human skin under the arm which is 60-70%), and has a cell memory that retains the shape of your body.

• Fully Titanium-lined: the entire suit is lined with a super thin heat retaining film called Titanium Alloy Alpha that reflects your bodyheat and also keeps out the cold. Every time you move, paddle, or expel energy, your thermal heat is reflected back to you—increasing heat retention by an amazing 40%.

• 3/2, 3/3 or 4/3: customize your thickness depending on your water temps.

• No smoothie: a more durable and forgiving chest panel without loosing any warmth.

 

SEAMS

• Glued & Double Blindstiched seams are sealed by a double coating of glue, butted together and then blindstitched on both sides of the seam.

• Fully Taped around the entire inside seams.

• Water-tight construction ensures no leaky seams, and is perfect for freezing temperatures.
• Curved seam construction with less seams equals more comfort and movement, and an ergonomic fit.

 

INTERCHANGEABLE HOOD OPTION

• Interchangeable Hood: if you choose the interchangeable hood option you will receive a neck entry bib with an attached hood and a standard neck entry bib. This allows you to change the type of bib depending on your conditions, using the hood for mid-winter sessions and the standard bib for spring and autumn. A versatile option to cover most of the year.

 

PERMANENT HOOD OPTION

• Permanent Hood: choosing this option will mean your suit will feature a permanently attached hood for added warmth and comfort.

 

ZB - NECK ENTRY SYSTEMS

• Chest Zip neck entry closure system made from Titanium lined superstretch rubber creates a super warm seal and prevents leakage. A neck entry gives you the best flush-free seal through any duck-dive, and no chunky zip up the back gives extreme stretch throughout the back panel.

 

KNEE PADS

• 5MM Strong Pad kneepads are ergonomically designed to fit the bend and shape of the knee while providing plenty of padding through our 4/3 3/3 and 3/2  Glued Suits.  3mm Strong Pad is used through our 2/2 Glued suit

CUSTOM-FIT

• Custom-Fit: approximately 1/3 people don't fit a standard size, yet a correctly fitted wetsuit insulates and protects the wearer from cold water, wind and abrasion.
• Customized colours & models: design your MAX with a variety of colours and tailor it to your specific watersport.
