Rip Curl Fusion Wetsuit Review - SEAMS THAT DON'T LEAK! Walkthrough

www.shore.co.u...
The new Ripcurl Fusion is leading the way in stitch-free suits, adding a vast amount of flexibility to the suit whilst refusing to compromise on warmth. This is a suit for someone who is serious about watersports and wants the best of the best.
What Rip Curl Say:
Stay warmer for longer in the revolutionary wetsuit that stays leak-free, for the life of the suit. The Rip Curl FlashBomb Fusion wetsuit with Fusion Dry Seam Technology features the most technically advanced seam construction Ripcurl have ever created to create a stronger seal without the need for stitching that can lead to water seepage over time (96% stitch free construction). Built using 100% E7 Flash Lining, it’s the ultimate balance of flexibility, warmth and durability. Experience over 50 years of innovation fused into one wetsuit. No stitch = no leak = no problem.

Yeh i dont care if it makes me surf like medina. Theres no way im paying $800 AU for a wetsuit glued together in asia for a fraction of that. What a rort.

The fusion's insides don't get fully wet on mine, so your body warmth doesn't warm up the wet inside all over. The suit is still newish so this may diminish over time, or you can just let water in yourself through the neck and up the sleeves and legs. The first surf it wasn't actually that warm because of this, but it improved with following surfs as the rubber loosened.

I like the design of the rip curl suits but find them hard to get in & out of compared to the Hurley

[@shore]

Are you using a chest zip hurley or a zip free one?

[@420Jon69]

Just ordered a e7 zipperless. Hopefully it’s better than the quicksilver high line zipperless I was using

[@shore]

Let us know although an E7 EBomb/Flashbomb Zipperless is a different seam technology to what Henry is discussing in this video

[@jeanburyanenko5228]

It would be interesting to forecast this wetsuit's lifetime and compare it to the price

I have had mine since April 2023 and still going great with a relatively decent amount of use. I saw an original sample that was a year older and looked good but its hard to tell until they have really had the test of time. Cheers Henry
