How To Choose A Wetsuit! Discussing Differences Between Steamer (Full Length) Wetsuits.

Join Becks as she discusses some of the basic differences you may want to consider when choosing a wetsuit for yourself. She outlines the most common considerations we discuss with our clients when they're trying to find the perfect wetsuit for their needs. This includes identifying how often you'll be surfing, where and what times of the year, how tolerant to being cold you are, and trying different brands to find the suit that fits you best. If you're shopping for a new wetsuit, give this a watch first so you know what you're looking for!
We cover off:
- what the numbers on wetsuits mean, and how to decide which thickness you need,
- different linings wetsuits may have,
- what the differences are between zip styles (chest zip, back zip, no zip).
(Apologies for any sound issues or rough edits - we filmed this right as we found out we were heading into another lockdown so did our best with what we got in one take).
We receive no incentives or sponsorship from any brands we mention in this video - they are purely the brands we stock, use, and recommend ourselves.

2mm 'bombshell' wetsuit featured is not linked as the company it's from doesn't make them anymore and the original zip broke on its second use so we don't recommend them anyway.
