How to care for your wetsuit

There are 4 simple steps to take when it comes to caring for your new wetsuit.

1 - Heed any good advice given to you from the surf shop you have bought your wetsuit from. Most surf shops are staffed by surfers and they have years of experience - so listen to them.

2 - Read your manufacturers guide. Have a flick through their booklet that is provided with the wetsuit to see if there are any particular things you should do.

3 - Register your product for warranty if possible. This is very important when your wetsuit gets damaged when you graze off the reef or the seams give way. Registering your product will speed up the repair of your wetsuit.

4 - Most importantly and very basic advice is this, after each use rinse out and drip dry in a shady place, somewhere like your garage. This not only protects the neoprene material from being slowly degraded but leaves your wetsuit dry and ready to get into for your next surf.
