Surfed 0 deg NYC in this

My theory with cold water surfing is to buy top of the line so I was considering a flashbomb but have owned a bunch of needs suits and they fit so well so bought the 5/4.

I’ve been surfing NYC, 5deg water 0 air with this plus their 2mm thermal top, plus the needs lobster gloves and boots.

The fit is amazing and I have been super warm, lasting about 2hs before my feet go cold.

The thermal top is actually the best bit of cold water gear I’ve ever owned and makes all the difference. I’ll probably wear it with my 3/2 when it gets warmer and skip a 4/3.

Highly recommend for ya cold water stoke.

Great Suit

Fantastic cold water suit, dealt with the depths of winter in the lower south island of NZ. It is flexi and warm, I have a little difficulty to getting out of it but small price to pay! Highly recommend for warmth, comfort and price.

LOVE IT!

For the middle of winter in Tassie, this wettie is perfect. I was suprised by how flexible & easy it was to get in & out of. High quality wetsuit - stuff paying more for the big name brands when these wetties are this good.
