DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Fit and Comfort
The ION ELEMENT 3/2 FRONT ZIP WOMEN 2021 feels like it was made for you the moment you put it on. It hugs your body without being too tight, which helps prevent water pockets and provides better support. The Silk_Stuff lining on the shoulders reduces friction while paddling, making your arm movements more fluid. The simple frontzip design ensures a secure fit across your torso.
Thermal Insulation and Materials
You'll feel the warmth in your core, thanks to 3 mm of neoprene on the torso that retains temperature, while 2 mm on the limbs promotes mobility. The Hot_Stuff 2.0 lining, renowned for its elasticity, acts as a thermal barrier while remaining flexible. ION neoprene combines flexibility and resistance, making this wetsuit perfect for sessions in temperate to cool waters.
Closure and Watertightness
The front zip makes it easy to put on, especially when you're alone on the beach or before a session. The panel construction and reinforced flat seams limit water entry and ensure a consistent fit, even during dynamic movements. The focus here is on a great balance between insulation and ease of use, so nothing slows you down.
Durability and Finish
This wetsuit is built to last. Its flat seams are reinforced in high-stress areas, and the outer fabric is designed to withstand sand and repeated contact. If you're a regular rider, you need a wetsuit that maintains its shape session after session, and this one does exactly that. The way the panels are assembled also helps to limit tension points.
Sizes and fit
The range covers XS, S, M, and L. Always check the manufacturer's size guide for your precise fit. The key is the fit around the torso and shoulders: your wetsuit should be snug without compressing. If you're between two sizes, opt for the larger size for enhanced freedom of movement and better insulation.
Usage and Care Tips
After every session, rinse your wetsuit with fresh water to remove salt and sand. Dry it in the shade on a wide hanger to prevent deforming the neoprene. Store it flat or on a large hanger, and avoid prolonged direct sunlight. If a seam starts to open, use a specific neoprene glue for repair or contact our after-sales support.
