TECHNOLOGY:

Neonseam: Panels are glued and Blindstitched then the seam is sealed using a liquid silicon based urethane. The result being a strong yet flexible seam that is watertight and durable whilst reducing the abrasion to skin caused by more conventional seaming technologies. Gul’s Neonseam when combined with Superlite G-Flex neoprene gives unsurpassed levels of warmth, flexibility and durability

Blindstitch: The conventional method of construction for serious winter wetsuits as it is both watertight and comfortable. Panels are glued and then butted together followed by stitching that does not penetrate all the way through the neoprene. Inside the wetsuit, heat welded tape goes over the seams in high stress areas, this further strengthens the seams and increases insulation. All winter wetsuits should be Blindstitched as standard.

X-FLEX: 150% stretch neoprene is used in our high performance wetsuits. It gives you maximum freedom of movement, allowing your wetsuit to work with your body. The latest X-Flex neoprene is 10% lighter, absorbs less water and has a softer, more comfortable feel. The improved X-Flex neoprene also has a lower modus, which means they stretch more without losing their shape and spring.

G-FLEX: 100% Super stretch neoprene giving unrestricted range of movement and warmth.

THERMOSPAN: has been engineered by our scientists so that your core body temperature locks in the heat. By wicking away your body moisture the lightweight thermal insulation traps warm air all around you. Keeping your core warm keeps your blood warm and this will pump round your body like your own central heating system. If you're out all year long then this is essential.

POWERTEX: New 4 way stretch high specification knee panels designed to resist the most harsh elements while providing maximum flexion and extension of the knee. Push your riding to the limits and power through the waves.

AQUA RING: Newly designed wrist seals to reduce water penetration whilst increasing comfort.
