DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Warmth & insulation
The suit's design adds an extra +0.5 mm of neoprene in key zones and features the TB4 FIREWALL across the chest to lock in body heat. On the water, you'll feel less chill at your core, letting you stay out longer without feeling restricted. The built-in drain holes flush out any water that gets in, without letting more in.
Sizes and how to choose
We stock sizes MT and XL, with M, L, and XL also available by special order from O'Neill. For the best performance, you want a snug fit around your torso to trap heat, with a bit more room in the shoulders for easy paddling. If you're between sizes or unsure, give us a call or stop by the shop for a proper fitting.
Construction / What makes the difference
The TB4 and TB4X panels deliver the perfect mix of stretch and warmth, backed up by the TB4 FIREWALL on the chest. The design uses as few seams as possible and adds tough Krypto Knee Padz to make the suit last longer. The chest zip makes getting in and out easy while its snug seal keeps flushing to a minimum.
On-water behaviour
This wetsuit feels incredibly warm at the core while your arms and shoulders remain loose and responsive. You'll be able to paddle hard and duck dive easily without feeling held back. The drain system and chest zip design reduce water sloshing around inside, keeping you stable and comfortable throughout your session.
Who it's for / level
We recommend this model for intermediate surfers and riders who need serious warmth for long sessions in cold water. If you're regularly out when the temperatures are low, this is the suit for you.
Buying advice
For the best performance, make sure the fit is snug on your chest but allows for comfortable shoulder movement. If you can, try it on in-store to check your paddling motion. Care tips: rinse with fresh water after every session, hang to dry in the shade, and keep it away from direct heat. Store your wetsuit flat to protect the neoprene and seams.

FAQ - O'NEILL HYPERFREAK FIRE 5/4+ CHEST ZIP
It's ideal for intermediate riders who want to stay warm during long sessions in cool water without sacrificing the flexibility needed for paddling and surfing.
It delivers extra warmth from the +0.5 mm neoprene and Firewall panels, amazing flexibility in the shoulders with TB4/TB4X material, and excellent durability thanks to the Krypto Knee Padz.
We stock sizes MT and XL. M, L, and XL sizes can also be special-ordered from the manufacturer, subject to availability.
Definitely. It's designed to be worn with standard neoprene hoods, gloves, and boots for full winter protection. The reinforced knees are also tough enough for the demands of surfing and bodyboarding.
To make your wetsuit last, rinse it with fresh water after each use and hang it to dry in the shade. Never use a tumble dryer or leave it in direct sun. Storing it flat helps preserve the neoprene panels and seams.
