    Top 5 Of The Best Value Wetsuits

    September 1, 2017 by Lisa Woodruff Leave a Comment

    Our staff at Gwithian Academy of Surfing have been around a while and know a thing or two about neoprene.  Here are our top 5 staff picks, the best buys for your buck.

    Roxy wetsuit

    Roxy Syncro LS Bootie Cut Springsuit

    £74.99
    £52.50

    Ok, this is for the ladies only! We love this version of the shortie spring suit from Roxy. Perfect for surfing warmer climes or for other watersports like Stand Up Paddleboarding or kayaking where you work up a sweat on the water.

    Why is it so good?
    Super stylish the Roxy Bootie Cut LS Springsuit not only looks amazing on, but it’s got an impressive spec too.

    FN Lite neoprene for warmth and lightness, this neoprene is packed with air cells for the lightest of lightweight warmth. Glideskin for comfort and Hydrowrap for a secure seal.

    Roxy syncro wetsuit

    Roxy Syncro Back Zip GBS Ladies 3/2 Wetsuit (Graphite/Peach)
    £119.99
    £83.99

    If you ladies are looking for a remarkable, flexible and warm suit at a remarkable price, this one’s for you. We love the peachy colour too!

    Why is it so good?
    The Roxy Syncro GBS is built with 100% top end features for stretch and flexibility but designed at an economical price.

    Dry Flight Far Infrared Heat thermal lining is placed in the chest and back water shield to provide retained body heat. It also uses the same higher end F’N lite neoprene. GBS (glued and blindstitched) seams reduce cold water leaks.

    In other words – Toasty!

    Gul Profile mens wetsuit

    Gul Profile Mens 3/2mm Wetsuit

    £135.00
    £95.00

    If you blokes want a top-end suit at a great price then the Gul Profile men’s wetsuit is definitely the suit for you.

    Why is it so good?
    It features X-Flex super stretch upper body panels that stretch beyond 100% allowing you to move with ease. Seams are blind stitched and taped meaning you really are getting a bucket load of top end suit features for your dollar.

    D-Flex lower body panels give both flexibility and durability meaning this suit is a perfect for just about any watersport, but we like it for surfing obviously!

    Quiksilver mens syncro base wetsuit

    Quiksilver Syncro Base 4/3 Mens wetsuit
    £89.99

    At the surf school, we need a wetsuit that will be flexible in the water, yet take a lot of punishment. It needs to keep our customers warm AND fit a wide variety of people.

    Introducing the Quiksilver Syncro Base. It fits the bill perfectly with an impressive spec at an incredible price.

    Why is it so good?
    It’s got a host of great high-end features plus it’s suitable for water temperatures of 12 – 16°C so when it gets cold you can keep surfing. Plus, it’s almost impossible to destroy.

    C-skins surflite wetsuit

    C-Skins Surflite 4/3 Womens Steamer Wetsuit (Black/Cold Blue/Lilac)

    £109.99

    C-Skins have come up with the goods this season as the Surflite has been given a whole new look. You also get a lot of great features for a low price.

    Why is it so good?
    Fewer seams mean better waterproofing and a stronger wetsuit overall. Full GBS seams give a totally watertight seal while the True Thickness neoprene keeps heat locked in.

    The chest panel and Ultra Stretch Xtend upper body make this the most flexible and warmest Surflite ever.
