DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Warmth for Winter
We recommend the Seek Core 5/4 when the temperature drops. Its 5/4 mm thickness provides serious thermal insulation while maintaining enough flex for paddling, riding upwind, or digging in an edge on a bottom turn.
Quick-Drying Comfort
Hot_Stuff 2.0 technology distributes and retains heat while speeding up drying time. Paired with Silk_Stuff in the arms and legs, getting into the suit is much easier, and it feels soft against your skin even after hours in the water.
Watertight and Durable Construction
Glued and blind-stitched GBS seams reduce water entry without adding weight. High-stress areas are reinforced with Maki_Tape 2.0 to extend the suit's life through seasons of heavy use.
Practical Front Zip
The front zip improves the seal and eliminates stress points across the back. This preserves full shoulder mobility and provides better insulation on the chest, making it a great choice for riders looking for the right balance of comfort and performance.
